A conservative estimate places the number of bombing runs at more than 5000, with more than 11500 bombs dropped, the majority of which were incendiary bombs. The targets of the bombing were all residential areas, business areas, schools, hospitals and other non-military targets. These terror bombings were probably aimed at cowing the Chinese government, or as part of the planned Sichuan invasion. battle-stub China-hist-stub Japan-hist-stub WWII-stub mil-aviation-stub Category:Battles of the Second Sino-Japanese War Category:Chongqing zh:???????????????
