There were many brutal actions that occurred during world war 1-- an atrocity refers to a brutal action, and it usually conveys the meaning of something totally unfair or unethical. For example, World War 1 was the first war where poison gas was used, and thousands of soldiers (and some civilians) died horribly painful deaths as a result. We could say that "many atrocities were committed against civilians during the war."
