📅 12 September 1930 📍 Vietnam

Thousands of peasants marched in Nghệ An demanding lower taxes, land, and an end to colonial and feudal oppression. French forces attacked the demonstration from aircraft, killing and wounding many people. The repression intensified the 1930–31 labor and peasant movement and demonstrated how colonial authorities used military force to defend extraction and political control.
