The Moment Japan Surrendered: Hirohito’s Shocking Broadcast

On August 15, 1945, millions of Japanese citizens tuned in to hear Emperor Hirohito speak for the first time ever. What they heard changed history—Japan had surrendered. After the devastating atomic bombings and the Soviet invasion, Hirohito made the ultimate decision to end the war. But in his speech, he never even said the word "surrender." Instead, he told his people to "endure the unendurable." With those words, World War II was over.
