🧵2024 Nobel Peace laureate Nihon Hidankyo, together with friends from the Japanese Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, celebrated the 5th anniversary of the #NuclearBan Treaty becoming international law w/ a candle light vigil in from the Dome that survived nukes. #5yearsTPNW 📷: nakaoku takeo

🧵5 years ago today, the #NuclearBan Treaty entered into force meaning it became legally binding intenational law. Thanks to the treaty, for the first time in history nuclear weapons are illegal and there is a plan to eliminate them. #5yearsTPNW 🥳

Happy Birthday to a man who dreamed of equality, peace and security for all people. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. believed a full-scale nuclear war would be utterly catastrophic. We agree. Let us honor his legacy by continuing to fight for a world without nuclear weapons.

Did you know that, 5 years ago this month, the #NuclearBan Treaty became international law? At a time of rising tensions and growing nuclear risks, this anniversary is a reminder: a different future is not only possible, it’s already underway. #5yearsTPNW

Thank you for the opportunity! @nti.org
