HIROSHIMA (Kyodo) Around 50 drawings by elementary school children who survived the Hiroshima atomic bomb that were sent to an American church six decades ago have temporary returned to Japan and are being exhibited at Honkawa Elementary School until next Monday.
At the opening of the exhibit earlier this week, 14 of the people who drew the pictures were reunited with their artwork for the first time in nearly 62 years.
Around 400 children who attended the elementary school in Naka Ward lost their lives in the A-bomb attack on Aug. 6, 1945.
