Explanation:

The use of atomic bomb on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan left the cities greatly destroyed and alot of lives were lost. this attack was carried out on these cities on the 6th and 9th of August 1945 with the approval of the United Kingdom according to the Quebec agreement.

The detonation of the atomic bombs by the U.S on Japanese cities has been the first and only time an atomic bomb has been used in an armed conflict this operation was carried out in the final year of the world war II and this led to Japan surrendering its mainland prior to the planned invasion of Japan by the allied forces. the people who opposed to the use of atomic bomb on Japan felt that Japan would have surrendered without the use of atomic bombs on their cities and also the effect of atomic bomb would be devastating as well to both civilians and the Military.
