More than one thousand people from government officials to military personnel and members of the public participate in a ceremony marking the 80th anniversary of the Sino-Japanese war in Shenyang, northeastern China, 18 September 2011. On 18 September 1931 Japanese troops attacked a Chinese army barracks in Shenyang, an event which triggered a bitter war of occupation with China which lasted until the end of the Second World War in 1945.
