These two uses of nuclear arms left 129,000 immediately dead in Hiroshima and another 226,000 in Nagasaki. It was not a stand-alone act by a belligerent nation, but one done with the consent of the United Kingdom, as required by the Quebec Agreement. Towards the end of World War II, the United States detonated two nuclear weapons over two Japanese cities - Hiroshima on 6 August 1945 and Nagasaki on 9 August 1945, respectively. He did not once apologise for the horrendous act of bombing the Japanese city of Hiroshima that shocked the world on 6 August 1945. Hiroshima bomber pilot Paul Warfield Tibbets Jr remained unrepentant till his dying day 1 November 2007. But the US pilot who carried out the bombing on Hiroshima never once felt the need to say he was sorry.
