Black Rain: Hiroshima's Aftermath

On August 6th, 1945, a new horror descended upon Hiroshima. After the atomic

bomb, a strange, dark rain fell. It was a terrifying mixture of

radioactive fallout, soot, and ash from the destroyed city, carried high into

the atmosphere. This 'black rain' brought devastating long-term health effects. Exposure led to

increased rates of cancer, leukemia, and severe illnesses, affecting many for

decades. A somber reminder of war's true cost, a legacy that

endures even today.
