The January 28 incident or Shanghai incident (January 28 –March 3, 1932) was a conflict between the Republic of China and the Empire ofJapan.

It took place in the Shanghai International Settlement whichwas under international control. Japanese army officers, defying higherauthorities, had provoked anti-Japanese demonstrations in the internationalDistrict of Shanghai following the Japanese invasion of Manchuria. The Japanesegovernment sent a sect of militant ultranationalist Japanese Buddhist priestsbelonging to the Nichiren sect to Shanghai. The monks were shoutinganti-Chinese, pro-Japanese nationalist slogans in Shanghai, promoting Japaneserule over East Asia.[2] In response, a Chinese mob formed killing one monk andinjuring two.[2] In response, the Japanese in Shanghai rioted and burned down afactory, killing two Chinese.[2] Heavy fighting broke out, and China appealedwith no success to the League of Nations. A truce was finally reached on May 5,calling for Japanese military withdrawal, and an end to Chinese boycotts ofJapanese products.
