The Sétif and Guelma massacre was a series of terrorist attacks by French colonial authorities and Pied-noir settler terrorist militias on Algerian civilians in 1945 around the French Algerian market town of Sétif, west of Constantine, Algeria. French police fired on demonstrators at a protest on 8 May 1945. Riots in the town were followed by attacks on French colons (colonizers) in the surrounding countryside, resulting in 102 deaths.
