The United States used atomic bombs on Japan in August 1945 primarily to hasten the end of World War II and avoid a potentially costly invasion of the Japanese mainland. The bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki aimed to demonstrate overwhelming military might, compelling Japan to surrender unconditionally. Additionally, U.S. leaders believed that the use of atomic weapons would save lives in the long run by preventing further combat. This decision remains a subject of intense ethical debate.
