Less than 78000 people lost their lives when bomb was dropped on Hiroshima true or false?

1 answer

True. It is estimated that around 70,000 to 80,000 people were killed immediately as a result of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. Additionally, many more died later from injuries and radiation exposure, bringing the total estimated deaths in the following months and years to around 140,000. However, the number of immediate fatalities was indeed less than 78,000.
