The Candia massacre occurred on September 6, 1898, on the island of Crete, then part of the Ottoman Empire. It occurred as a reaction by armed Muslim irregular groups (Bashi-bazouks) to the offer to the Christian community of a series of civil rights by foreign powers. They attacked the British security force in Candia (modern Heraklion), which was part of an international security force on the island. Muslim irregulars then proceeded to massacre the local Christians in the city. As a result 14 British military personnel were murdered, the British vice-consul and his family were burnt alive in their house and 500–800 Christian inhabitants are estimated to have been massacred. A significant part of Candia was burnt and the massacre ended only after British warships began bombarding the city

  • وقعت مجزرة كاندية في 6 سبتمبر من عام 1898، في جزيرة كريت، ثم جزءاً من الدولة العثمانية. وحدث ذلك كرد فعل من جانب جماعات مسلمة غير نظاميّة مسلحَّة على عرض على المجتمع المسيحي سلسلة من الحقوق المدنية. وهاجموا قوات الأمن البريطانية في كاندية، والتي كانت جزءاً من قوة أمنيَّة دوليَّة في الجزيرة. وبعد ذلك شرع المسلمون غير النظاميين في مذبحة ضد المسيحيين المحليين في المدينة. ونتيجة لذلك، قُتل 14 عسكرياً بريطانياً، وتم إحراق نائب القنصل البريطاني وعائلته أحياء في منزلهم، ويُقدر أنَّ 500 إلى 800 من السكان المسيحيين قد ذُبحوا. تم إحراق جزء كبير من كاندية ولم تنته المذبحة إلا بعد أن بدأت السفن الحربية البريطانية في قصف شامل للمدينة. وتسارع الحادث بنهاية الحكم العثماني على جزيرة كريت وبعد شهرين غادر آخر جندي عثماني الجزيرة.

  • Η σφαγή του Ηρακλείου συνέβη στις 25 Αυγούστου του 1898 [6 Σεπτεμβρίου του 1898 στο νέο ημερολόγιο], στη πόλη του Ηράκλειου, της Κρήτης, η οποία τότε βρισκόταν υπό Οθωμανική κατοχή. Συνέβη ως αντίδραση από άτακτες ένοπλες μουσουλμανικές ομάδες, στην επικείμενη παραχώρηση στη χριστιανική κοινότητα της πόλης μιας σειράς πολιτικών δικαιωμάτων. Επιτέθηκαν στη βρετανική δύναμη ασφαλείας του Ηρακλείου (τότε Χάνδακα), η οποία ήταν μέρος διεθνούς δύναμης ασφαλείας στο νησί. Οι μουσουλμάνοι άτακτοι προχώρησαν στη σφαγή των χριστιανών της πόλης με αποτέλεσμα να σκοτωθούν 500-800 χριστιανοί ντόπιοι κάτοικοι, 14 Βρετανοί στρατιωτικοί καθώς και ο Βρετανός Υποπρόξενος Λυσίμαχος Καλοκαιρινός με την οικογένειά του, οι οποίοι κάηκαν ζωντανοί μέσα στο σπίτι τους. Ένα σημαντικό τμήμα του Ηρακλείου κάηκε και (el)
