Limerick has become the latest town to make use of the leaflets produced by the Japanese military.
The leaflets have been distributed around the country in an attempt to educate people about what has happened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The leaflet printing is part of a campaign aimed at educating the public about the devastating effects of the nuclear attack on the city.
It’s also a way of keeping awareness alive for survivors of the attack.
In addition to being used in Limerick, the leaflets have also been distributed in Dublin, Limerick West and Louth, Limster, Kildare and Wicklow.
One of the leaflet printed posters was sent to the President of the European Council, Donald Tusk.
“The message is simple: If you live in a city and you are part of the 6.8 million people that died in Hiroshima, Nagasaki and elsewhere, you are more important than ever,” Limerick City Councillor David Hargreaves said.
“These leaflets are intended to show that there is a world of difference between what has been described as the worst crime in history and what is happening now.”

Mr Hargremans said the leaflets had a special place in Limster’s history. “
People need to understand that the people who were affected by these bombs were not part of some sort of cult or anything like that.”
Mr Hargremans said the leaflets had a special place in Limster’s history.
“I don’t think that we’ve had a leaflet of this magnitude that was sent before and it was sent by the Irish Volunteers. “
“We really need to send these leaflets to everyone who has been affected by the bombing of Hiroshima and to people who have survived Hiroshima and also Nagasaki.” “
Mr Taus said it was important that the message of remembrance and solidarity be heard. “

Mr Fergus said the leaflets had been used for years and had been shared by the local community. “
That is something that we believe should not be forgotten and that we must not be quiet and we must continue to make sure that those who suffered and the victims of Hiroshima are not forgotten and are never forgotten.”
Mr Fergus said the leaflets had been used for years and had been shared by the local community.
“If you look at the history of Limerick and the history and culture of Limster and you see that there’s an active and vibrant community and we’ve been able to use this leaflet to really make a difference in Limsters history, and our culture, then I think it’s important that we do it again,” he said.
