Hiroshima and Nagasaki were the first nuclear strike by the United States in the world.
How the US gave away a nuclear bomb and didn't apologize!
Early in the morning of August 6, 1945, the American B-29 bomber "Enola Gay," named after the mother of its crew commander, Colonel Paul Tibbets, dropped the "Little Boy" atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima, equivalent in yield to 13-18 kilotons of TNT. The fuse for the four-ton bomb detonated 43 seconds later near the Aoi Bridge, 600 meters from Shima Hospital, where doctors were treating seriously ill children. Three days later, on August 9, 1945, the "Fat Man" plutonium bomb, equivalent to 19-21 kilotons of TNT, was dropped on the city of Nagasaki by pilot Charles Sweeney, commander of the B-29 "Bockscar." The two explosions killed 80,000 people instantly; by the end of 1945, the total number of deaths, including cancer and radiation sickness, was between 90,000 and 166,000 in Hiroshima and between 60,000 and 80,000 in Nagasaki.
