  • The Japanese city of Yahata (which was incorporated into the larger city of Kitakyushu in 1963) was subjected to three major air raids during World War II, part of the U.S. strategic bombing campaign. The first raid took place on the night of 15/16 June 1944. This was the first attack on the Japanese home islands by United States Army Air Forces bombers since the Doolittle Raid of 1942. The city was next attacked during the day and night of 20 August 1944. These two attacks caused little damage to the city's industrial facilities. The third raid was conducted on 8 August 1945 and resulted in 21 percent of Yahata's urban area being destroyed. The third raid may have spared nearby Kokura from destruction, as Kokura was to be the primary target for the second atomic bomb the following day, but smoke from the fires in Yahata combined with cloud cover decreased visibility to the point that the secondary target of Nagasaki was bombed instead.

  • La ville japonaise de Yahata (incorporée en 1963 dans la ville plus importante de Kitakyūshū) est la cible de trois importants raids aériens durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, car possédant les plus grandes aciéries de l'empire du Japon à l'époque. Le premier a lieu durant la nuit du 15 au 16 juin 1944. Effectué dans le cadre de l'opération Matterhorn, il constitue la première attaque sur les îles japonaises par les bombardiers de l'United States Army Air Forces (USAAF), et la première attaque sur l'archipel japonais depuis le raid de Doolittle de 1942. La ville est durant la journée et la nuit du 20 août 1944. Ces deux bombardements causent peu de dommages aux installations industrielles de la ville. Le conduit le 8 août 1945 entraîne la destruction de 21 % de la zone urbaine de Yahata. La fumée due à l'incendie et la mauvaise météo empêchèrent l'attaque atomique prévue sur la ville voisine de Kokura et la bombe Fat Man destinée à la ville fut larguée sur Nagasaki. (fr)
  • Yahata adalah sebuah kota di Fukuoka, Jepang (kemudian digabung ke dalam kota besar Kitakyushu pada tahun 1963) menjadi sasaran tiga serangan udara besar, bagian dari kampanye pengeboman strategis Amerika Serikat selama Perang Dunia Kedua. terjadi pada malam 15/16 Juni 1944, yang merupakan serangan pertama terhadap pulau-pulau di Jepang oleh para pasukan pengebom Angkatan Udara Amerika Serikat sejak Serangan Doolittle pada tahun 1942. Kota ini selanjutnya diserang siang dan malam pada 20 Agustus 1944. Pada serangan kedua ini menyebabkan kerusakan kecil pada fasilitas industri kota. Serangan ketiga dilakukan pada 8 Agustus 1945 dan mengakibatkan 21 persen wilayah perkotaan Yahata dihancurkan. Serangan ketiga tersebut mungkin telah menyelamatkan daerah sekitar Kokura dari kehancuran, karena Kokura sebenarnya adalah target utama bom atom pada hari berikutnya, tetapi kepulan asap tebal yang dibuat para pekerja pabrik di Yahata dikombinasikan dengan awan tebal, menurunkan jarak pandang ke titik itu. Target sekunder Nagasaki yang akhirnya dibom atom. (in)
