Explanation:

The attack on Pearl Harbor was a surprise military offensive by the Imperial Japanese Navy against the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor (Hawaii) on the morning of Sunday, December 7, 1941. The attack was intended as a preventive action aimed at to avoid the intervention of the United States Pacific Fleet in the military actions that the Empire of Japan was planning to carry out in Southeast Asia against the overseas possessions of the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands and the United States. The Japanese made this offensive coincide with the attack on the possessions of the British Empire in Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore, which were already in their possession in mid-February 1942.

The attack began at 7:48 a. m., local time, and was carried out by 353 Japanese aircraft that included combat fighters, bombers and torpedo boats that took off from six aircraft carriers. The eight American battleships moored in the port were damaged, and four of them sank. Of these eight, two were refloated and four repaired, so that six could return to service later, during the war. The Japanese attack also sank or damaged three cruisers, three destroyers, a school ship and a miner. The Americans lost 188 aircraft, 2403 Americans died3 and another 1178 were wounded of varying consideration. However, the Japanese did not attack the power plant, the shipyard, the maintenance facilities, the fuel tanks and torpedoes, the submarine docks and the headquarters and intelligence section buildings. The Japanese lost 29 aircraft and five minisubmarines, in addition to suffering 65 military losses between dead and wounded. Also, a Japanese sailor was captured alive.
