Osaka nuke damage


Osaka area – map with names.
Osaka area - map with location of nuclear strikes.

               These are the Ashiya, Uji and Osakasayama ruin-zones.

During the 2013 to 2015 conflict with North Korea and China, several missiles were fired at the region, of the 9 nukes 3 were detonation hits, the others were intercepted or neutralized. Many conventional missiles also hit the region, but they are not marked on the map. Their damage repaired by 2030.

Each nuke was a "small" 150 kt bomb causing a 1.5km center of intense devastation with lasting radiation levels, a 2.5km zone of heavy destruction and a 6.5km zone of light damage. In all three cases a 5km zone is marked on the map, because it is still a no-habitation area.The land surrounding these zones has mostly been been cleared for about 200m and turned into gardens.
