Best Answer

That depends upon how close the people are to the explosion, but nuclear bombs produce very powerful explosions that can kill people in large numbers. And because the explosions also produce a lot of radioactivity, even people who are not killed by the explosion may later die from radiation sickness or from cancer caused by the radiation.
