Before August 1945, military leaders in Japan

The surrender of Japan was announced on August 151945 and was formally signed the same year on September 2. This surrender by Japan brought world-War 2 to end. The reason behind this surrender was that the Japanese Navy was incapable of conducting major naval operations on invasion made by allied powers on Japan and their loss was imminent. Before August 1945, Military officials from Japan refused to accept the fact that Japan can lose the war and they denied requests made by allied powers in regards to the surrender of Japan. But with increasing force of Allied powers in Japanese coast led military officials to discuss surrender and on August 9, the first meeting took place between Japanese military officials to discuss surrender but that went on debate and the Japanese cabinet was split over the decision of surrender. Anami told Japanese officials that an American jet pilot after being tortured has told them that the United States has 100 atomic bombs and are planning to bomb Tokyo in next few days and from fear of that, Japanese military officials agreed to surrender as they already had witnessed damage done by two atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
