None. An Atomic Bomb was dropped on Hiroshima (Japan) on 06 August 1945, which along with the Nagasaki (Japan) Atomic Bomb dropped on 09 August 1945, brought an end to World War Two. At present, that was the FIRST and LAST time atomic weapons have been used in war. The Korean War started 5 years later and in a different country (Korea).

Why are nuclear bomb more hazardous then conventional bomb?
First, the amount of energy released is enormous. The most powerful conventional bomb has a few tons of explosive; 7 tons perhaps. The bombs used in Hiroshima and Nagasaki had the equivalent yield of 20,000 tons of TNT. Those were more like prototypes - in the meantimes, bombs with yield of megatons (millions of tons of TNT) have been produced. The highest yield nuclear bomb tested was 52 to 58 megatons (depending on method of measurement). Also, nuclear bombs have radioactive fallout, which will contaminate the environment.
