Hiroshima marks 80 years since atomic bombing amid escalating nuclear tensions

Against the backdrop of rising Russia-US tensions, Japan held a ceremony on Wednesday morning commemorating 80 years since the United States’ atomic bombing of Hiroshima. Speakers warned the representatives of 120 countries and regions in attendance that escalating threats of nuclear warfare “blatantly disregard” the horrifying legacy of the 1945 attacks that killed over 240,000 people.
