Hiroshima bomb remembered 75 years on

Hiroshima bomb remembered 75 years on

The Hiroshima bomb, known as "Little Boy" devastated an area of five square miles. The initial blast killed nearly 120,000 people - with the after-effects of radiation killing many thousands more. Around 60% of the buildings in the city were destroyed. One of which, just 1.1 kilometres from the epicentre of the blast, housed little 8-month-old Koko Kondo who amazingly survived. Speaking to 5 Live’s Emma Barnett, Koko, who now works as a peace activist, explained how it was decades later before her parents told her the full story of that day and how she felt when she met the co-pilot of the plane which dropped the bomb.
