Explanation:

The Nanking Massacre (also known as the Rape of Nanking) was a mass atrocity committed by Japanese soldiers against Chinese civilians during the Second Sino - Japanese War. The other options do not accurately refer to this historical event. "Manchurian Massacre" is not the correct term for this large - scale killing of Chinese civilians in Nanking, and "Japanese Massacre" and "Chinese Massacre" are not the recognized names for this event.

Answer:

D. Nanking Massacre.
