The End Is Near? Top Psychics Reveal Shocking Predictions For 2025
According to a New York Post report, Brazilian psychic Athos Salome, 38, who has been known as a living Nostradamus for predicting momentous events like Queen Elizabeth's death, also believes that WWIII is on our doorstep and that "the worst is yet to come". This conflict will be perhaps scarier than in years past, as tech and cyber warfare will become the modus operandi for 21st-century combatants.
"This is not just a war of men but of machines, and in this aspect, what comes next?" lamented Salome.
Another member of this apocalyptic quartet, London hypnotherapist Nicolas Aujula, 38, believes that war could break out by the middle of this year due to a "lack of compassion in the world".
Based on his psychic visions, "We will see horrific acts of human evil and violence towards each other in the name of religion and nationalism."
These unsettling predictions come at a time of rising global instability. Conflicts continue to escalate, with ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan and no resolution in sight for the Russo-Ukraine war. Recent geopolitical shifts-such as Sweden's NATO membership in March and Finland joining in April 2023-have significantly expanded NATO's border with Russia. Adding to the tension, Moscow recently warned the UK against forming a "coalition of the willing" in Ukraine, cautioning that such actions could trigger a nuclear World War Three.
Against this backdrop, the psychics' warnings feel all the more alarming.

CM Stalin pushed for ban on lighters before EPS, says Anbarasan
CHENNAI: Following AIADMK General Secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami's assurance to Kovilpatti matchbox workers that lighters would be banned if his party came to power, MSME Minister TM Anbarasan said that the union government had already banned lighters under Rs 20 and the import of their spare parts, based on CM MK Stalin's demands. Anbarasan on Saturday said Stalin had written to the union ministry of commerce and industry in September 2022, demanding a ban on lighters. 'Although lighters under Rs 20 were banned in June 2023, spare parts were imported from various countries and assembled locally to sell lighters. We took up the matter again and pushed for the ban of spare parts in October 2024.' He further said that although during the Russia-Ukraine war the import of potassium chloride was affected, the TN government 'acted swiftly and procured it through Chennai Petrochemicals, and supplied it to matchbox manufacturers.' The Tamil Nadu government had also announced a facilitating centre for 'Kadali Mittai' manufacturing at a cost of Rs 7.13 crore with Rs 6.42 crore subsidy.

Who is Evyatar David? Harrowing Hamas video shows ‘living skeleton' in Gaza, Israel PM Netanyahu slams ‘Nazi-like abuse'
An armed wing of Palestinian militant group Hamas released a video of 24-year-old Evyatar David on Saturday, triggering protests at Tel Aviv's "Hostage Square". The videos were released as ceasefire talks between Israel and Hamas have stalled, and Palestinians in Gaza face a mounting starvation crisis. The videos, released by militant groups Hamas and the Palestinians, showed Israeli hostages Evyatar David and Rom Braslavski in a visibly fragile state. In the 40-second clip, David looked skeletal and weak in a narrow concrete tunnel, for the second night in a row. The undated footage of David is juxtaposed with images of starving Palestinian children. According to the New York Post, Evyatar David was forced to dig a grave by Hamas leaders. In the video, David said he hasn't eaten in days. "This is the grave where I think I am going to be buried," he reportedly said in the video. His family authorised the release of this harrowing footage. David's family, according to the New York Post, said in a statement sent to the Hostages Families Forum Headquarters, 'We are forced to witness our beloved son and brother, Evyatar David, deliberately and cynically starved in Hamas's tunnels in Gaza — a living skeleton, buried alive." "Hamas is using our son as a live experiment in a vile hunger campaign. The deliberate starvation of our son as part of a propaganda campaign is one of the most horrifying acts the world has seen," David's family was quoted by news agency AFP as saying. Demonstrators take part in a protest to demand the immediate release of hostages held in Gaza since the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel by Hamas and to end the war, as a video released by Hamas of hostage Evyatar David is displayed, in Tel Aviv, Israel, August 2, 2025. REUTERS/Ammar Awad NO RESALES. NO ARCHIVES TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY Evyatar David was reportedly abducted, along with his friend Gal Gilboa-Dalal, during the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023. that sparked the Gaza war. Both had been attending the Nova music festival in southern Israel. They were among 44 festival-goers seized. Palestinian militants killed 370. Of the 251 hostages taken during the Hamas attack, 49 are still being held in Gaza, including 27, the Israeli military says, are dead. In late February, Hamas had released a video showing David and Gilboa-Dalal being held inside a vehicle and forced to watch a hostage release ceremony a short distance away, AFP reported. Israeli restrictions on the entry of goods and aid into Gaza have reportedly led to severe shortages of food and other essentials, stoking international demands for a ceasefire. Hamas has included this issue in their hostage videos, warning that the hostages are going hungry alongside their captors and that time is running out for a ceasefire. However, the Israel military has the allegation of "deliberate starvation". On July 23, Israel's Foreign Ministry released a purported video showing 'Hamas about full meals in their tunnels, far from the suffering above and stocked with items not from humanitarian aid.' The appalling video sparked outrage in Israel and across the globe. Thousands flooded the Israeli streets, demanding that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu make a deal for the hostages after Hamas showed footage of the emaciated captive underground. Meanwhile, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said he spoke with the families of Hamas hostages Rom Braslavsky and Evyatar David. "I expressed to them my deep shock at the harsh footage published by the Hamas terror organisation. I told them in the clearest way – we are continuing the effort to bring back all the hostages, relentlessly, with determination, and without tire," he said in a post on X. Netanyahu said the "cruelty of Hamas knows no bounds." "While the State of Israel allows the entry of humanitarian aid to the residents of Gaza, Hamas terrorists deliberately starve our hostages, documenting them in a cynical, humiliating, and malicious manner," he added. "They also deliberately starve the residents of the Strip," Netanyahu alleged. "They prevent aid from reaching them, and then lie to the world and conduct a false propaganda campaign against Israel," he said. Netanyahu called on all the countries of the world – stand against this 'Nazi-like abuse. Do not stand by. This is a moral test.'

All eyes on Putin's voice Medvedev as Trump sends nuclear subs to Russia - is a tense standoff on the cards?
Trump sends U.S. nuclear submarines toward Russia after Medvedev's threats escalate Ukraine war tensions- In a dramatic show of force, President Donald Trump announced the deployment of two U.S. nuclear submarines in response to what he called 'highly provocative statements' made by Dmitry Medvedev, Russia's former president and current Deputy Chair of its Security Council. The move has reignited fears of nuclear escalation amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, drawing global attention and raising critical concerns over national security, diplomacy, and the fragility of deterrence strategies in the nuclear age. Trump orders nuclear submarines repositioned to counter Russia's nuclear threats On August 1, 2025, President Trump took to Truth Social to announce that two nuclear submarines had been repositioned to strategic locations near Russia. The decision followed a fiery statement by Dmitry Medvedev, who warned of worsening conflict and invoked Cold War-era nuclear rhetoric, referencing Russia's 'Dead Hand' automatic retaliation system—an ominous legacy from Soviet times designed to launch nuclear weapons even if leadership is destroyed. Explore courses from Top Institutes in Please select course: Select a Course Category others Operations Management Technology Management Data Analytics Leadership Digital Marketing Data Science Product Management Finance Healthcare Project Management PGDM Public Policy Data Science MCA Design Thinking Artificial Intelligence MBA healthcare Others CXO Cybersecurity Degree Skills you'll gain: Duration: 16 Weeks Indian School of Business CERT - ISB Cybersecurity for Leaders Program India Starts on undefined Get Details Trump's post read: 'Based on the highly provocative statements of the Former President of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, including threats involving nuclear weapons and the Dead Hand system, I have ordered two Nuclear Submarines to be positioned in strategic locations—just in case these foolish and inflammatory statements are more than just that.' This marked one of the rare moments in modern history where the location of U.S. nuclear assets—typically classified—was referenced publicly by a sitting president. Why Trump's move is making headlines around the world What makes this announcement particularly shocking is not just its timing but also its method of communication and its strategic implications. Military experts, nuclear watchdogs, and diplomatic analysts all agree: U.S. nuclear submarine movements are never disclosed publicly for security and deterrence reasons. By confirming such a repositioning, even vaguely, Trump broke with decades of silent doctrine. Live Events Additionally, the escalation comes at a time when tensions in Eastern Europe are boiling over, with Ukraine fighting to hold off renewed Russian advances near Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia. Trump's warning was widely seen as a way to assert American military dominance and issue a direct warning to the Kremlin. What Medvedev said that triggered Trump's nuclear response Trump's nuclear posture was triggered by an explosive online tirade from Dmitry Medvedev, who dismissed Trump's recent 10-day ultimatum to Russia as "childish," while warning that 'the next phase of this war could go nuclear.' He doubled down by invoking Russia's Cold War-era "Dead Hand" system—an automatic launch mechanism that activates nuclear missiles if Russian leadership is incapacitated in a first strike. In his statements, Medvedev called the United States 'arrogant and delusional,' and accused Trump of 'fantasy politics,' further escalating the diplomatic clash. The Kremlin has not officially endorsed Medvedev's remarks, but analysts believe his comments often reflect deeper currents in Moscow's security and defense circles. Understanding the strategic role of U.S. Ohio-class nuclear submarines President Trump's mention of repositioning nuclear submarines likely refers to Ohio-class ballistic missile submarines (SSBNs)—the cornerstone of America's nuclear triad. These stealth vessels are armed with Trident II D-5 missiles and are designed to remain hidden under the oceans, serving as a second-strike capability in case of nuclear attack. According to Hans Kristensen, Director of the Nuclear Information Project at the Federation of American Scientists, these submarines already operate globally, and no 'special deployment' may have occurred. 'The subs are always out there… they don't need to be moved into position. This is more about signaling than strategy,' Kristensen explained in a Reuters interview. Experts criticize Trump's nuclear threats on social media International security experts and arms control advocates have strongly criticized President Trump's public rhetoric, warning it could set a dangerous precedent. Daryl Kimball, Executive Director of the Arms Control Association, said: 'No leader should be threatening nuclear war in such a juvenile manner, especially on social media. Strategic ambiguity is key to deterrence, and this move erodes that.' Evelyn Farkas, former Pentagon official and now Director at the McCain Institute, said Trump's announcement is part of a larger geopolitical chess game aimed more at intimidating than initiating war: 'This isn't about an imminent nuclear strike. It's signaling. It's the equivalent of flipping the high beams to get someone's attention.' The bigger picture: Trump's 10-day Ukraine ultimatum and global fallout Just days before ordering the submarine repositioning, Trump issued a 10-day ultimatum demanding that Russia halt its aggression in Ukraine or face sweeping economic sanctions, including potential secondary sanctions on countries supporting Russia—such as India and China. This hardline stance marks a notable shift in Trump's foreign policy tone. Once seen as less confrontational with Putin, Trump has now branded Russia's war tactics as 'disgusting and cowardly,' calling for a 'global economic blockade' against Moscow if hostilities continue past August 8, 2025. This deadline has now become a focal point in international diplomacy, with global markets reacting and NATO allies bracing for potential escalations. Is this nuclear posturing or a real shift in defense strategy? While President Trump's public comments suggest immediate action, most experts agree that this is not a sudden strategic change. The U.S. Navy does not typically confirm or deny submarine movements, but it's widely understood that the Ohio-class fleet is always on silent patrol. Trump's language, however, is seen as a break from traditional nuclear protocol, with potentially serious consequences. Publicly referencing the use or movement of nuclear-capable forces can undermine deterrence and provoke unintended escalation, especially when adversaries feel the need to respond in kind. How other countries are reacting to Trump's submarine order Global reactions have been swift. European allies in NATO have urged restraint, with Germany and France calling for de-escalation. Meanwhile, Russia's Foreign Ministry accused Trump of 'reckless provocation,' warning of 'unpredictable consequences.' China, which has maintained a neutral stance on the Ukraine conflict, expressed 'grave concern' over the rhetoric from both the U.S. and Russia, calling for 'measured dialogue.' India, which Trump recently targeted with tariff threats if it continues trading with Moscow, has yet to make an official statement, but analysts expect it to tread carefully given its strategic partnerships with both Washington and Moscow. A dangerous moment in modern geopolitics President Trump's nuclear submarine announcement has undeniably raised the stakes in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, showing that the U.S. is willing to flex its military muscle in unconventional ways. Whether this move is a serious strategic step or a high-stakes political message remains to be seen—but what's clear is that the world has entered a new, uncertain phase of nuclear diplomacy. The coming days—especially as the August 8 deadline approaches—will be critical in determining whether these threats are the beginning of deeper confrontation or a calculated bluff in a tense geopolitical standoff. FAQs: Q1: Why did Trump send nuclear submarines toward Russia? Trump acted after Medvedev's nuclear threat and Russia's warnings escalated during the Ukraine war. Q2: What is Russia's 'Dead Hand' system mentioned by Medvedev? It's an old Cold War nuclear system that automatically launches missiles if Russia is attacked.
