Hiroshima was a city of great commercial and military importance, an important base for the supply of the Japanese army, a communications center and a point of gathering the troops, and there were no camps of prisoners of war. It is not surprising that the highest priority was given to Washington Hiroshima. First, prior to the atomic bombing of the city did not touch that provides a measure of future damage caused by a nuclear warhead. Hiroshima was exposed to fire. Despite the fact that the center of the building were made of reinforced concrete, the rest of the city consisted of a small wooden houses with tile roofs. Several industrial companies that were on the outskirts of Hiroshima, also had a wooden frame.
As for the number of residents of the city, based on the registration of the population used to calculate the diet of a person, at the time of the attack the population was approximately 250,000 people. Estimation of the number of additional workers and troops previously given to the city may be inaccurate.

It is considered to be that 140 000 people have died in Hiroshima from explosion and its consequences. The similar assessment for Nagasaki makes 74 000 people.

Both cities which were injured from the first and only in the history of mankind fighting use of the nuclear weapon have been almost wiped out. Every year the world remembers terrible events which have claimed thousands of the lives of civilians.
