Jan. 30, 1972 - Londonderry, Ireland - In response to Terrorist attacks on British soldiers and Irish police, and the bombings of Protestant villages and Belfast British government flooded the province Northern Ireland with troops, including Scottish regiments and the paratroopers. In August 1971, the army entered the 'No Go' areas and dismantled the barricades. On 9th August, the government introduced a policy of interning IRA suspects without trial. The Army's behavior achieved complete alienation of the catholic population with these tactics, and the final paroxysm was reached when paratroopers opened fire on rioting Catholics in Londonderry, killing 13, on 30th January 1972-Bloody Sunday. It was by far the worst day of violence in this largely Roman Catholic city since the present crisis began in 1969. PICTURED: Catholic demonstrators and British troops in front of each other.
