The Bataan Death March involved approximately 75,000 Filipino and American troops who were forced to march over 65 miles in April 1942 after the surrender of the Bataan Peninsula to Japanese forces during World War II. Captured soldiers endured severe hardships, including brutal treatment, lack of food and water, and extreme heat. The march was part of Japan's campaign to consolidate its control over the Philippines following its invasion. The event became a symbol of the cruelty faced by prisoners of war during the conflict.
