How many pows were there in cambodia?

Answer 1

During the Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia from 1975 to 1979, it is estimated that around 1.7 million people died due to execution, forced labor, and starvation. While exact figures for prisoners of war (POWs) are difficult to determine, many individuals were imprisoned under brutal conditions, and the regime targeted various groups, including intellectuals, professionals, and perceived political enemies. The total number of political prisoners and detainees during this period is estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands.
