The Hiroshima bombing and its aftermath ultimately claimed about 140,000 lives, helping to draw to a close the deadliest conflict in history and, for better or worse, usher in the atomic age.

HIROSHIMA, Japan— Japan is marking the 70th anniversary of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.

Mayor Kazumi Matsui renewed his call for President Obama and other world leaders to step up efforts toward making a nuclear weapons free world.

More than 40,000 people attended Thursday's ceremony at Hiroshima's peace park near the epicenter of the 1945 attack that killed 140,000 people. Another bombing of Nagasaki three days later killed more than 70,000, causing Japan's surrender six days later.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said that as the sole country to face nuclear attack, Japan has the duty to push for nuclear weapons elimination.

The anniversary comes as Japan is divided over Abe's push to pass unpopular legislation to expand the country's military role internationally.
