Koreans at Hiroshima Nagasaki Article currently says In August 1945 when the U S dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki around 25 of those killed were Koreans I thought this sounded a little categorical so I looked up the original source cited It only says this Perhaps as much as a quarter of the total casualties at Hiroshima were Koreans Which is a much more couched and uncertain statement and only refers to Hiroshima not Nagasaki It gives no citation for this statement
