Today, on #HiroshimaDay, we honor the memory of the lives lost 81 years ago when the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. The lingering health effects, trauma, and suffering experienced by the Hibakusha over decades are a constant reminder of what must never be repeated.

[SCRAPweapons @SCRAPweapons]

As we honor the memory of the lives lost and stand in solidarity with the #Hibakusha, today serves as a stark, solemn reminder: #nuclearweapons must never be used again. @SCRAPweapons remains dedicated to advancing general and complete disarmament.
