Product Description
Nuclear attacks make use of nuclear weapons, which are extremely destructive bombs powerful enough to destroy an entire city. Nuclear bombs have only been used twice, both times by the United States against Japan during World War II (1939-1945). On August 6, 1945, the city of Hiroshima was almost completely destroyed, and three days later the city of Nagasaki was bombed. Hundreds of thousands of people died as a result of the attacks, and the cities were in ruins.
