Hiroshima atomic bombing survivor Sunao Tsuboi dies at 96
Sunao Tsuboi, a survivor of the Hiroshima atomic bombing who made opposing nuclear weapons the message of his life, including in a meeting with President Barack Obama in 2016, has died. He was 96. Tsuboi died October 24 in a hospital in Hiroshima in southwestern Japan. The cause of death was given as an irregular heartbeat caused by anemia, Nihon Hidankyo, the nationwide group of atomic bomb survivors he headed until his death, said Wednesday. When Obama made his historic visit to Hiroshima, Obama and Tsuboi held each other's hand in a long handshake and shared a laugh.
