Hiroshima Flattened By A-Bomb
Breaking news as a small city in Japan,Hiroshima, was flattened by what is believed to be the first atomic bomb ever made. The force was so powerful that it wiped out the whole city and just under half of the population. The plane that dropped the bomb was believed to be an american B 29 bomber aircraft.
August 6th 1945, the plane flew across Hiroshima around 8.15am. It caused devastation across town in a 10 mile radius.The aircraft was originally meant to drop the bomb in a different city but bad weather called that mission off so they dropped it on Hiroshima. It blew up and made a mushroom shaped cloud then came back down and wiped out the rest of the city.
The American president Harry S Truman said the bomb was meant to end the war. He summed up by saying hiroshima’s luck is Nagasaki’s misfortune. August 9th 1945, Nagasaki was brought down by another american atomic bomb.
