The 2024 Elmonton massacre started in the city of Elmonton on the night of 13 April, 2024. Hundreds of thousands of Saroqi demonstrators were fired upon by Saterocian soldiers, tanks, aircraft, and other armed equipment and vehicles throughout the night, before the massacre finally concluded the following morning when Saterocian soldiers were ordered by their higher-ups to immediately stop firing upon the crowds. The incident has become one of the deadliest in Sateroc's modern history, also becoming the deadliest massacre ever in Saroq's recent history. The massacre took place amidst the 2024 Saroq and Cascutia protests due to government restrictions within both autonomous regions, as well as immediately after the 2024 Kolkesburg bombings, which was perpetrated by Saroqi militants.
