Nagasaki Day is observed on August 9 every year to in the memory of all the innocent people and children who were killed during the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombing. The United States had dropped an atomic bomb on the Nagasaki city of Japan in 1945 during World War II. Nagasaki Day 2020 aims to memorialise the 80,000 people killed during the bombing. It is recognised to promote peace and harmony politics against the war and create awareness about the fulmination of nuclear weapons and the effects of nuclear energy. Here are Nagasaki Day images you can share to extend your support towards the day. History of Nagasaki Day In 1945, on August 9, the United States dropped an atomic bomb named "Fat Man" on Nagasaki at 11:02 a.m., almost 1,650 feet above the city. Nagasaki was a shipbuilding centre of Japan, the very industry intended for destruction. The nuclear bomb explosion unleashed the comparable force of 22,000 tons of Trinitrotoluene (TNT). The hills that surrounded Nagasaki contained the lethal force. Exactly three days prior to the Nagasaki bomb attack, on 6th August 1945, the United States had stationed an atomic bomb over the Japanese city of Hiroshima. The nuclear explosion caused by the US due to the bombing wiped out 90% of the city. The attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki marked the first time for atomic bombs in warfare.

The anniversary of the dropping of the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki is commemorated across the world. And this year, an international joint grassroots action will allow people – wherever they are – to join together in one action. CND joined the international 2008 protest in Japan. Starting from the moment the first bomb was dropped, 8:15am on August 6th, waves of many creative forms of actions will encircle the globe until 11:02 am on August 9th, when the second bomb was dropped over Nagasaki. The first Peace Wave took place in 1987, after the delegates of the then Soviet and US peace movements at the World Conference against A and H Bombs called for an international action in support of a total ban and the elimination of nuclear weapons. The organisers of the World Conference have called for another Peace Wave this year, with the following statement: “Let us make the Peace Wave a tremendous campaign by which the anti-nuclear movements, in cooperation with all other movements demanding cuts in military expenditure, protection of human lives, livings and jobs, gender equality and other vital needs, will take the lead in establishing a nuclear weapon-free, peaceful and just world.” How can you join in? In Japan, actions will start with silent prayer at 8:15am on August 6th and also end with silent prayer at 11:02am on August 9th. CND is calling on all its supporters to also mark the moments that the bombs fell (but in UK time), with a silent period of reflection. • Downlo...
