The Massacre of Halalaf (In Salahtubyah: Masaka yü Halalaf) directly translates to "Massacre of Thousands". This was a 10 day period of time from December 24, 1444 to January 3, 1445 (Islamic Calendar). This aptly named event started on December 24, two days after the Da Boyz military had recently (successfully) invaded about 1/3 of Sloughttopia's second largest city, Samoflop. In this period of time, Daboyz wiped out thousands of people via a process where they would bombard and light towns ablaze, capture people, pillage villages, and execute civilians, where they would create an estimated 45 mass graves. They killed anywhere from 3,300 to 7,000 people during this short, 10 day period. This marked a moment of vulnerability and weakness in the Sloughttopian government.
Demographics
Majority of the people killed in this massacre were men and children. While most wives worked in courthouses, attorneys, and offices in major tech cities like the capital, Minajaji and Leiville, men worked usually from home or near the home and often took care of children. An estimated 3,000 men and 2,500 children were killed in their homes on on the streets. They also targeted people inside of any religious building with 4 churches being burned, 17 Masjids, and 2 Synagogues.
Tactics
Even though most people were executed after their homes were destroyed and they were captured, around 670 people were burned alive inside their houses after they were set on fire. The bodies of many people were found charred on the floors of houses, in positions that suggest they they died in agony. Da Boyz also used a cluster of 56 ambushes on 64 villages all around the south of Samoflop. They would use bombs or fireballs to burn and destroy houses. They reportedly left the old to live, leaving them with the trauma of the events in the last years of their lives.
