WARNING: This article contains material that some might find distressing.
Rarely seen footage of Tiananmen Square massacre that was blocked from being aired has been released.
While the events of the crisis are widely known, the incident remains a taboo topic in mainland China where it is strictly censored and controlled by the government.
Also known as the June Fourth incident, the demonstrations started in April 1989 as groups descended upon Beijing’s most iconic landmark to protest corruption and economic policies while calling for social security.
