Question

Was an atomic bomb exploded by the Soviet Union during the Korean War?

Answer 1

In 1949, after numerous threats from the "Evil Empire" and its repressive regime of Truman, USSR made a good answer to those threats.
The bomb was tested on the Semipalatinsk site in the Kazakh steppes.

Answer 2

Contrary to the Urban Myth, no Atomic bomb was dropped in Korea by the USSR (Russia) during the Korean War, to have used such a device would have surly meant killing a lot of US and Allied soldiers from the United Nations Force there, also the resulting fallout would have been spread far and wide with the wind causing massive contamination that could never have been covered up.

Also such a strike would have received retaliation from the USA on Russian soil. And thereby igniting the 3rd World War.
