After Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed by atom bombs on August 6 and 9, Japan surrendered unconditionally to the United States and her allies on August 15.
Kui Hiroshima ja Nagasaki 6. ja 9. augustil aatomipommidega hävitati, alistus Jaapan 15. augustil tingimusteta Ühendriikidele ja selle liitlastele.
