@NobelPrize More important than ever in current times of wars, with government members of Russia and Israel publicly considering options of nuclear attacks. Peace and respect is needed not nationalism ✌️and therefore no atomic weapons!

BREAKING NEWS The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPeacePrize to the Japanese organisation Nihon Hidankyo. This grassroots movement of atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, also known as Hibakusha, is receiving the peace prize for its efforts to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons and for demonstrating through witness testimony that nuclear weapons must never be used again. #NobelPrize
