										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The word of mouth of the survivors of the entire Hiroshima bombing: &#8216;Ghosts go around&#8217; make the whole world &#8216;dumbfounded&#8217; when remembering the 2nd largest nuclear tragedy in human history.</strong><br />
<span id="more-19457"></span> It has been 15 years since the US military bombed the city of Hiroshima, Japan: Early in the morning of August 6, 1945, 12 US military pilots in black uniforms quietly arrived at the Tinian island base. The top secret mission they performed this time, and the content of the mission was to bomb Japan. To achieve this goal, these excellent pilots had to undergo special training for 10 months. There were seven B-29 bombers on the runway, and in the bomb bay of the specially modified 82nd &#8220;Enola Gay&#8221; bomber, the famous &#8220;boy&#8221; atomic bomb lay in it, Weighs 4,100 kg.</p>
<p> <img fifu-featured="1" decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_25_180_38955234/9ff6713f647d8d23d46c.jpg" width="625" height="349"> To ensure the good completion of this mission and the security of the atomic bomb, the 12 pilots were prepared to sacrifice themselves, once their bomber was shot down, they would end up with pistols or cyanide. before falling into enemy hands. To ensure that even if the mission failed, the secrets of the bomber&#8217;s bomb bay would not leak out of his mouth. Six bombers have a clear assignment. Two of them are used to detect the enemy&#8217;s situation, the other three need to observe weather conditions. The ultimate bombing target was the 82nd bomber. At 2:40 a.m., they began to slow down the runway and take off. The technical expert began to prepare to throw, open the safety device, install the fuse. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_25_180_38955234/a43c4ef55bb7b2e9eba6.jpg" width="625" height="678"> At 7 a.m., the meteorological observatory sent back a report that the weather in Hiroshima was very good and the most suitable place to throw. Half an hour later, the 82nd bomber began to make the final preparations. Five minutes later, two enemy bomber scouts left early for safety. At 7:50, the bomber officially entered Japanese airspace. At 8:13, the bomber officially flew into Hiroshima, from the bomber, you can even see the buildings in downtown Hiroshima, as well as many small &#8220;ants&#8221; walking around. Those are the people who get up early and go out to work. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_25_180_38955234/3661c2a8d7ea3eb467fb.jpg" width="625" height="463"> At this point, the people of Hiroshima must have seen these bombers, but according to regular bombing drills conducted by the US military in the past, the people were already familiar with it, not not running away, but looking up. At 8:13, Major Ferrabi was also the bombardier on the mission, he found the Aioi Bridge target within range of the bombing, located in downtown Hiroshima. At 8:15 a.m. 17 seconds, the major opened the door of the bomb compartment, and the &#8220;little boy&#8221; fell from a height of 10,000m, rushing towards Hiroshima with the sound of demons howling. At the same time, the atomic bomber made a huge turn and flew wildly into a place nearly 90 degrees above the ground. Since it had less than 50 seconds left for it to escape, if it failed to enter the safe zone, Enola Gay would be blown to powder in this huge shock wave. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_25_180_38955234/a4c5550c404ea910f05f.jpg" width="625" height="789"> At 8:16 a.m., the detonator detonated, two pieces of uranium 235 immediately merged into one, causing a chain reaction, within 43 seconds, &#8220;Death&#8221; lowered an altitude of 550 m above Hiroshima. At this time, the people of Hiroshima at the center of the explosion saw a large fireball suddenly rise above the city center, burned to ash by the temperature of more than 6,000 degrees, even to the point of time. Crying and crying can&#8217;t help. The bright light blinded thousands of people instantly, and the shockwave following the explosion directly destroyed the entire city. In just a few short seconds, the lives of 70,000 people were taken away by the &#8220;god of death&#8221;, within a kilometer of the center of the explosion, there was no sign of life, even the buildings were vaporized, dead silence. The fire spread throughout the city, the cries for help echoed throughout the streets, big and small. According to the memories of the survivors of each year, everyone&#8217;s facial skin was burned black, hair was no longer there, some people were completely unrecognizable, couldn&#8217;t even distinguish which one was the face, which was the head, whose skin was not stripped, hung there, as if cooked. There are also corpses burned to black coals that can be seen everywhere, living people step over corpses, people can&#8217;t be people, and demons can&#8217;t come out. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_25_180_38955234/f6fb06321370fa2ea361.jpg" width="625" height="349"> It is estimated that more than 88,000 Japanese people were killed on the day of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, the number of Japanese who died from nuclear radiation after the explosion could be even higher. On August 9, just three days after bombing Hiroshima, the Americans repeated the old trick and dropped another atomic bomb on Nagasaki, killing 86,000 people on the spot. After suffering the effects of two atomic bombs, Japan finally submitted a letter of surrender. In this regard, then-US President Truman said: &#8220;Only the sound of nuclear explosions can make the Japanese truly listen to submission.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>On some islands in Japan, visitors can see rabbits, cats, deer &#8230; everywhere, the number is even more than the people on the island.</strong><br />
<span id="more-17508"></span> Several islands off the coast of Japan are home to large numbers of certain species of animals, many of which have lived there for centuries.</p>
<p> <strong> Tashirojima Cat Island</strong> The most famous animal island in Japan is Tashirojima, where there are more cats than people. Tashirojima is a small island located off the coast of Ishinomaki City in Miyagi Prefecture. There are over 100 cats that live in harmony with the locals. Tashirojima Island was once known as a famous silk producer. The cat boom on the island dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868). At this time, islanders raised cats to help protect silkworms from mice and other pests. Tashirojima is not the only cat island in Japan. Aoshima in Ehime Prefecture and Ainoshima in Fukuoka Prefecture are also home to more than 100 native cats. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_04_119_38723973/48e162e540a7a9f9f0b6.jpg" width="625" height="416"> <em> Today, on the island there is still a cat shrine called the Cat Shrine. Photo: Unusual Places. </em> <strong> Okunoshima Rabbit Island</strong> Located in Hiroshima Prefecture, Okunoshima is one of the islands with the most &#8220;animal inhabitants&#8221; in the world. Currently, there are about 1,000 wild rabbits living on the island. Located in the Seto Inland Sea, the island was home to a chemical weapons factory during World War II. The rabbits currently living here are believed to be descendants of rabbits that were once used as test subjects for chemical weapons. Today, Okunoshima is famous as a charming destination with sandy beaches, many cycling paths and friendly rabbits. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_04_119_38723973/43c46dc04f82a6dcff93.jpg" width="625" height="416"> <em> In fact, there are far more rabbits than the population on the island. Photo: Chris McGrath. </em> <strong> Kojima Monkey Island</strong> Kojima Island is located about 200 meters off the coast of Miyazaki Prefecture. The island&#8217;s name literally means &#8220;happy island&#8221;. Kojima has beautiful sandy beaches and warm surrounding waters. There are about 100 wild monkeys on the island. The monkeys that live here have a unique habit of washing potatoes and dipping them in seawater before eating. The sea water gives the potatoes a salty taste, and this habit is passed down among generations of monkeys on the island. This has led many to assume that monkeys are capable of building cultures just like humans. In addition, Kojima Island also has other animals such as rabbits and pandas. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_04_119_38723973/0b8d248906cbef95b6da.jpg" width="625" height="468"> <em> No people live on Kojima Island. Photo: Das Gebiet. </em> <strong> Itsukushima Deer Island</strong> Itsukushima in Hiroshima Prefecture is home to about 500 deer. The island, also known as Miyajima (which means &#8220;temple island&#8221; in Japanese), is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Japan with its distinctive red tori gate standing in the middle of the sea. Deer have lived in Itsukushima for at least 800 years. They are honored by local residents as messengers of God and are worshiped at Itsukushima Shrine on the island. Today, visitors can see deer roaming freely around the island and they are allowed to take pictures with them <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_04_119_38723973/b70d9b09b94b5015095a.jpg" width="625" height="468"> <em> Visitors are more likely to encounter deer in the pier shopping street and in the woods than in the main temple grounds. Photo: Insider. </em> <strong> Yonaguni ngựa Horse Island</strong> Located at the westernmost tip of Japan, Yonaguni Island in Okinawa Prefecture is famous for its scenic spots, blue ocean and beautiful white beaches. The Yonaguni horse is also one of the island&#8217;s signature features. It is an indigenous breed and is one of the eight types of horse of Japanese origin. Coming to Yonaguni Island, visitors can participate in many experiences with horses such as horseback riding on the beach, horseback riding around the island or horseback riding into the sea&#8230; <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_04_119_38723973/9cdab1de939c7ac2238d.jpg" width="625" height="416"> <em> Yonaguni horses are quite small, averaging 110 to 120 cm in height. Photo: ZEKKEI Japan. </em> <strong> Yagishiri Sheep Island</strong> Yagishiri Island is located 25 km west of Hokkaido. About a third of the island is covered with forests. With beautiful nature, many scenic spots and a variety of flora and fauna, the island is an attractive destination for visitors to explore throughout the year. Yagishiri is also known as the Suffolk breed of sheep, which originated in England. Visitors can watch them relax and graze on a large grassland. Suffolk lamb is tender, is a high quality and expensive ingredient. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_04_119_38723973/939bc19fe3dd0a8353cc.jpg" width="625" height="468"> <em> Yagishiri Island is a popular destination for nature lovers.
