Japanese Atomic Bomb Survivors

Japanese Atomic Bomb Survivors, known as hibakusha, are individuals exposed to the radiation and effects of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. These survivors often experienced physical injuries, radiation sickness, and long-term health issues such as cancer. They also endured psychological and social challenges due to their experiences. Many hibakusha have become advocates for peace and nuclear disarmament, sharing their stories to promote awareness of the devastating impacts of nuclear warfare. Their experiences are an important part of global history, highlighting the human toll of nuclear conflict and the need for international peace efforts.
