From a leaflet distributed by MAPW:

Members of the Medical Association for Prevention of War (Australia) are here this morning commemorating the anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima, the Japanese city bombed by the United States with the first atomic weapon.

Hiroshima
was bombed at 8.15am on 6 August 1945. The bomb used was nicknamed “Little Boy”. 90 000 people (many of them women and children) were killed immediately; at least 145 000 were dead within the following months.

Three days later

Nagasaki
was bombed on the 9th August 1945.
The bomb used this time was nicknamed “Fat Man”. 40 000 people were killed immediately, with around 75 000 dead by the end of the year.

Today’s nuclear weapons are hundreds (and in some cases many thousands) of times more destructive than those used on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

In 2004, only 8 nations are known to have nuclear weapons: these are the United States of America, Russia, France, China, the United Kingdom, India, Pakistan and Israel.
