== π Why Hiroshima Day Is Observed == On '''August 6, 1945''', during the final stages of '''World War II''', the United States dropped the first-ever atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. The explosion instantly killed an estimated '''70,000 people''', with tens of thousands more dying later from radiation exposure and injuries. This historic and tragic event changed the course of world history and brought the devastating consequences of nuclear weapons to the forefront of human consciousness. Hiroshima Day honors those who lost their lives and aims to prevent such tragedies in the future. ----
