Operation PX, also known as Operation Cherry Blossoms at Night, was a planned Japanese military attack on civilians in the United States using biological weapons, devised during World War II. The proposal was for Imperial Japanese Navy submarines to launch seaplanes that would deliver weaponized bubonic plague, developed by Unit 731 of the Imperial Japanese Army, to the West Coast of the United States. The operation was abandoned shortly after its planning was finalized in March 1945 due to the strong opposition of General Yoshijirō Umezu, Chief of the Army General Staff.

rdfs:comment	L'opération PX, également connue sous le nom d'operation Cherry Blossoms at Night (en anglais) et operation Yozakura en japonais, est une attaque militaire japonaise planifiée conçue pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale contre des civils aux États-Unis à l'aide d'armes biologiques. Selon ce plan, les sous-marins de la marine impériale japonaise doivent lancer des hydravions pour répandre les bacilles de la peste bubonique contenus dans des armes développées par l'unité 731 de l'armée impériale japonaise, sur la côte ouest des États-Unis. L'opération est abandonnée peu de temps après la finalisation de sa planification en mars 1945 en raison de la forte opposition du général Yoshijirō Umezu, chef d'état-major de l'armée.
