13 January, Lithuania

On January 13, 1991, Soviet troops killed 14 Lithuanian civilians and injured hundreds in an attempt to reestablish control following Lithuania's declaration of independence the previous year.

It is a day of national mourning in Lithuania every year. Here's the Wikipedia entry on it:
