Bloody Sunday (1972) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (2808 words)
On Sunday January 30, 1972, in an incident since known as Bloody Sunday, 14 unarmed men and boys were shot dead (one of whom died 4 months later) and 13 others were wounded by British paratroopers after a Northern Ireland Civil Rights Association march in the Bogside area of the city of Derry, Northern Ireland.
Bloody Sunday boosted the status of the organisation, and many young Catholics, who felt aggrieved at what they perceived as the injustice of the day, joined the IRA.
Memory of Bloody Sunday overshadows most other violent instances in the history of the recent troubles of Northern Ireland, arguably because it was carried out by the forces of the British Government and not paramilitaries.
