Japanese organisation Nihon Hidankyo, a grassroots movement of atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, also known as Hibakusha, won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday.

The recipient of this year’s Nobel Peace Prize is a fast-dwindling group of atomic bomb survivors. They're increasingly worried about their old age and the limited time to convey the firsthand horror they witnessed 79 years ago.

The 2024 Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded to Nihon Hidankyo, a grassroots Japanese organization of atomic bomb survivors for its efforts “to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons.”
