Japanese officials and residents solemnly remembered the 77th anniversary of the atomic attack on Nagasaki on Tuesday, 3 days after the same anniversary was marked in the city of Hiroshima.

'[The Russia-Ukraine conflict] has shown the world that the use of nuclear weapons is not a groundless fear but a tangible and present crisis,' he said, per the AP.
