Russian President Vladimir Putin does not truly understand the destructive power of nuclear weapons, a 92-year-old survivor of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki said on the eve of his Japanese survivors' group receiving the Nobel Peace Prize. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/12/10/japan/nihon-hidankyo-putin-nukes/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #nobelprize #awards #nihonhidankyo #nuclearweapons #atomicbombings #hibakusha #defense #hiroshima #nagasaki #vladimirputin #russia #russiaukrainewar

Those exposed while in the womb or during early childhood to radiation from the atomic bombs dropped during World War II said they are determined to demand at the Nobel Peace Prize award ceremony Tuesday that nuclear weapons be abolished. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/12/09/japan/womb-radiation-hibakusha/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #atomicbombings #nuclearweapons #nobelprize #awards #nihonhidankyo #hibakusha

A response of sorts to “Oppenheimer,” a film under production called “What Divides Us” shines a light on the individuals who worked together to document Hiroshima after the nuclear bombing. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2024/11/27/film/what-divides-us-hiroshima/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #culture #film #wwii #hiroshima #atomicbombings #nuclearweapons #hibakusha

Posiblemente el Nobel que más me ha interesado este año ha sido el de la Paz. Que suele ser el que más sufre de la cosa del poder, la ideología y demás. Pero reconocer el testimonio y el trabajo de quienes fueron víctimas de las dos primeras bombas atómicas (#Hibakusha) ha sido algo lleno de justicia, un acto ético como pocos al reconocer el trabajo de la asociación Nihon Hidankyo por el desarme nuclear.

People in Hiroshima and Nagasaki reiterated their call for peace Saturday, a day after Nihon Hidankyo was named this year's recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/10/12/japan/hiroshima-nagasaki-peace-call/ #japan #nobelprize #awards #nihonhidankyo #nuclearweapons #atomicbombings #hibakusha #defense #hiroshima #nagasaki

Who are the victims of A & H bombs? Who are the Global Hibaksuha?
