Correct choice: trials in which Nazi leaders were charged with “crimes against humanity.”

Briefly: After World War II (mainly 1945–1946) the Allies held the Nuremberg Trials in Nuremberg, Germany, to try prominent Nazi leaders for crimes against peace (waging aggressive war), war crimes, and crimes against humanity. The proceedings established important precedents in international law.
