World War 3 before 2025 ends: 'The worst is yet to come'-
The chilling prediction of World War 3 in 2025 is gaining global attention after four world-famous psychics shared eerily similar forecasts. From ancient seers to modern mystics, these warnings suggest we may be closer to global conflict than many would like to believe.
Among the most shocking revelations: psychics Baba Vanga, Nostradamus, Athos Salomé, and Nicolas Aujula all believe a large-scale war will break out before the end of the year. Their shared vision of devastation is not only sparking fear but also drawing attention to current global tensions—from the India-Pakistan ceasefire violations to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.
Is Baba Vanga's war prediction already coming true in 2025?
Baba Vanga, often called the 'Nostradamus of the Balkans,' was born in 1911 and passed away in 1996. Yet her predictions continue to cause global buzz. She allegedly foresaw 9/11, Princess Diana's death, and even recent climate-driven natural disasters.
For 2025, Baba Vanga reportedly predicted severe earthquakes and a major military conflict—one many now speculate could be World War 3. Recent deadly tremors in Myanmar and Thailand appear to match her warning about intensified seismic activity. These predictions, which were shared in interviews and through books by followers of her prophecies, are raising questions about how close we might be to the edge of a global war.
What does Nostradamus say about war in 2025?
Nostradamus, the 16th-century French astrologer known for his cryptic poems, also had unsettling predictions for 2025. In his famous book
Les Prophéties
(1555), he wrote about a looming war in Europe that would deeply affect the UK.
Live Events
'When those from the lands of Europe, see England set up her throne behind,' he wrote, 'her flanks, there will be cruel wars. The kingdom will be marked by wars so cruel, foes from within and without will arise.'
Some interpret this as a sign of political instability in Britain followed by military involvement in a larger conflict. Nostradamus also warned of 'a great pestilence from the past' returning—sparking fears of a pandemic or biological weapon linked to the war.
Is modern-day Nostradamus Athos Salomé warning of cyber warfare?
Athos Salomé, a Brazilian psychic known for predicting Queen Elizabeth's death, also believes World War 3 is likely this year. The 38-year-old has gained a reputation as a 'living Nostradamus,' and his warning stands out for one specific reason: the role of artificial intelligence and cyber warfare.
'This is not just a war of men, but of machines,' Salomé said. He warned that the next major conflict will rely heavily on digital weapons, cyberattacks, and advanced AI technology—something global leaders and tech experts have already started sounding alarms about. Some even compare the need to regulate AI to nuclear weapons.
What does Nicolas Aujula believe is driving us toward global war?
London-based hypnotherapist and psychic Nicolas Aujula is another voice adding to the sense of urgency. According to Aujula, 38, the world's growing 'lack of compassion' could spark a major war within months.
His visions reportedly showed rising violence and cruelty carried out in the name of religion and nationalism. 'We will see horrific acts of human evil,' Aujula said. He also suggested that global leaders need to take spiritual and emotional shifts seriously, not just political or military strategies.
Are real-world events matching these World War 3 psychic predictions?
The fears voiced by these psychics are magnified by what's already happening globally. Earlier this month, India and Pakistan exchanged airstrikes over military targets. While a ceasefire was announced shortly after, it was quickly disrupted by further violence in Kashmir—a disputed region that has long been a flashpoint for war.
Meanwhile, the Russia-Ukraine war continues to intensify. Last week, a massive Russian drone and missile attack killed at least seven people in Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities. Despite diplomatic pressure, Russian President Vladimir Putin has shown no signs of backing down.
In fact, reports this week said Putin had issued a list of demands that critics say mirror his original position from before the 2022 invasion—suggesting that peace may still be far off. Former U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly demanded that Putin show seriousness about ending the war, but the Kremlin responded with silence.
Should we be worried about these World War 3 predictions?
While psychic predictions are often viewed with skepticism, it's the overlap between prophecy and present-day headlines that's grabbing global attention in 2025. From climate disasters to rising international tensions, the world is already on edge.
Whether these prophecies are a warning, coincidence, or self-fulfilling narrative, one thing is clear: now more than ever, the calls for diplomacy, de-escalation, and global cooperation are growing louder.
FAQs:
Q1: What is the World War 3 prediction for 2025 by psychics?
Several famous psychics believe a major global war could begin before the end of 2025.
Q2: Who predicted World War 3 in 2025?
Psychics Baba Vanga, Nostradamus, Athos Salomé, and Nicolas Aujula all predicted it.

Who dares to defy Trump? Why the world is haunted by this White House

Donald Trump is the 14th US president of my lifetime, and he claims a unique distinction. Through all the previous White House incumbencies, months went by when even educated, informed British, German, Indian, Brazilian, French or Australian people did not give a moment's thought to America's we noticed when a president visited our country or started a war or got impeached or had an incredibly beautiful wife who dressed wonderfully. We knew that the US was the richest and most influential nation on earth, and that on the big things we needed to play follow-my-leader. But even somebody like me, who lived in the US for a couple of years, and visited regularly until January 2025, did not lie awake nights wondering what our neighborhood superpower might do that has changed. We used to mock nervous nellies who went through life terrified that a plane might crash onto their house. Now, however, we know exactly how the plane-crash neurotics feel. We are mesmerized, haunted, by everything Trump says and does, because nobody can predict his next mood swing. This delights the man himself. All he wants from life is unimaginable wealth and the rest of us bowing to his every whim. He is the Sun King, the epicenter of global attention, because he has shown the willingness as well as the power to make rain or shine in accordance with should be allowed to pretend that this is normal. It is absolutely abnormal. It represents political climate change in some ways more bewildering than living on a planet that is getting hotter, because on some days our country — whichever that may be — finds itself microwaved by the White House, while on others it is suddenly exposed to permafrost. The latest example is Trump's announcement that the US will send new air-defense systems to Ukraine, purchased by NATO members, together with long-range missiles. This is unequivocally a good thing. Ukrainian city-dwellers have been enduring a nightly battering from Russian missiles and drones against which they have become almost defenseless, as the flow of US weapons has slowed. The big question is how serious is the president's change of heart after months of rubbishing Ukraine and its leader — and how long it will last. He himself says he is 'disappointed' by Vladimir Putin, but 'not done with him.' Since the inauguration, Russian oligarchs have been freer to do business in the US, and Washington agencies charged with monitoring their activities have been shut has renewed support for Ukraine mostly because he feels personally snubbed by Putin. If that changes, so once again could American policy. Then there is the global economy. Some of the smartest economists say they are unsure whether US business can survive the roller-coaster ride launched by Trump, most conspicuously through tariffs, or whether the economy will tank. Willful uncertainty about the future of Jerome Powell and the Federal Reserve, with attacks renewed this week by Trump, further rocks confidence. The respected Martin Wolf of the Financial Times is among those who characterize the Trump tariffs as 'crazy,' an adjective he reprised this week. Mohamed El-Erian, formerly a Wall Street investment whiz and now a distinguished academic, is among those who admits that he has no idea how the Trump story will play out. We should never underestimate America's resilience and stupendous capacity for innovation. But he writes in the current Foreign Affairs that the only rational course for other nations is to build robust financial defenses and reduce their dependence on the US, while forging new relationships, because there is no early prospect, and perhaps no prospect even after Trump, that the US will resume its historic role as a reliable partner. El-Erian warns both nations and corporations against what behavioral scientists call 'active inertia' — 'when actors recognize that they need to behave differently but end up sticking to familiar patterns and approaches regardless.' The question almost every government in the world is asking itself is whether it dares to defy Trump. Two weeks ago, he warned Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva that he would impose 50% tariffs on the country's exports to the US unless criminal proceedings are dropped against former President Jair Bolsonaro, for his 2022 attempt to stage a coup, to retain power after losing the last election. There is no pretense that this threat is linked to trade balances. It is merely a component in what we can call Trump's dictator protection program. He was a warm supporter of Bolsonaro, widely considered an appalling as well as corrupt national leader. Bolsonaro's son Eduardo has close personal relations with the Trump clan. Lula responded with outrage to Trump's threat, saying 'no one is above the law.' His country's exports to the US amount to only 2% of its gross domestic product, but a 50% tariff will undoubtedly cause disruption. The European Union faces even more serious dilemmas in determining its response to lobbying by Trump, backed by tariff threats, on behalf of US Big Tech. There is an issue here that goes beyond mere commerce. The tech giants profit mightily from running almost open-house content policies, which some of us consider deeply corrupting, especially of the young. Brussels has been striving to regulate social media, and to punish companies that spread anti-social material. But Trump is batting for the tech giants to enjoy free rein — 'free speech' as he and his acolytes call it — and to be spared from EU retribution. So great is Europe's fear of a wider trade war, that its regulators may yet bow to Washington. It is highly debatable whether the EU will risk deploying its Anti-Coercion Instrument against America, even though tariff blackmail offers an obvious justification for it. Then there is Iran. Will the US attempt to parley with the mullahs about their nuclear program, or revert to bombing? My friends, including one very well-informed Israeli, say that Benjamin Netanyahu suckered Trump into joining his war; that the Iranians, though unquestionably a malign force, were not about to produce a nuclear weapon; and that force alone cannot resolve the problems and threats posed by Iranian regional aggression. But whether Trump will fall out of love with Netanyahu as he now professes to have fallen out of love with Putin, we cannot tell. The president himself does not know what he might do, or not do, next Tuesday. It is the not knowing that scares the world so much — and which makes us talk about Donald Trump almost every day.

Can Syria's tiny Druze minority survive West Asia's new storms? There's little hope

Little imagination is needed to understand what's driving the violence in Syria. Following the fall of dictator Bashar al-Assad's dystopic regime, more than 1,000 members of his Alevi community were slaughtered in their coastal redoubts by government forces and Islamist militia. In one case, journalist Maggie Michael reported , a young man's heart was cut out of his body. His name was listed among 60 dead that included his cousins and neighbours, and six children. Even as Druze tribesmen poured in to reinforce their clan, in the summer of 1925, a French column led by General Roger Michaud was ambushed before the gates of Sweida and routed. A French officer committed suicide, historian Philip Khoury records . The first shots emerged from the bowels of the great volcanic mountain of Tell Qeni. They were likely aimed with more hope than military focus at the French Nieuport-Delage NiD.29 C.1 fighter plane, which had been surveilling Druze positions on Jabal al-Druze – the great mountain redoubt of the Druze community. The great rebellion had begun, even if the pilots hadn't noticed it. Two days later, the Druze leader Sultan al-Atrash occupied the region's second town, Salkhad, and slaughtered a column of 166 French colonial troops, laying siege to the capital at Sweida. For much of their history, the Druze have fought mainly to be left alone in their mountain redoubts—allying with Israel, or Syria, or whichever power might safeguard their interests. In 2018, more than 200 Druze were killed in concentrated attacks by Islamic State suicide bombers, as retaliation for their cooperation with the regime against the jihadists. Led by Sheikh Hikmat al-Hijri, Druze forces have been savagely expelling Bedouin tribes from the region, following a kidnapping of a trader on the road to Damascus. There have been arguments over incendiary religious messages spread over social media. The bigger story is this, however: The collapse of the state in Syria has opened the way for genocidal ethnic-religious warfare—and the Druze want to make sure they are not on the losing end. The fighting has been intense. Entire neighbourhoods have been gutted, journalists Santiago Montag and Hussam Hammoud have reported, while Sweida's main hospital was overrun by gunmen who slaughtered its patients. And yet, the fighting is showing no signs of ending. There is a saying that the Druze like telling about themselves. As historian William Miles writes: 'When a fortune comes their way, a Christian would build a huge mansion, a Muslim would go to Mecca on pilgrimage, and a Druze? A Druze would simply buy more weapons.' Lights in the landscape Even though Indians are used to seeing West Asia as one uninterrupted wash of Islam, the reality is more complex: Like all other parts of the world, liminal communities, perched on the edge of the hegemonic faiths, light up the landscape. The Druze do not self-describe as Muslims, though their theology shares elements of Islam. The community believes in Tawhid – the unity of the divine and the human – sees time as unfolding in eternal cycles, and believes that the soul of a Druze who has died immediately reincarnates in the body of another. Loosely linked to the Ismaili offshoot of the Shia sect, the Druze have their holy text, the Rasail al-Hikma, or Epistles of Wisdom, although the Quran is also part of their theological framework. Tight ethnic and religious bonds hold the community together. The demographer Nissim Dana records that, even in relatively liberal Israel, there were just 145 cases of conversion recorded from 1952 to 2009, mainly to enable marriage to non-Druze spouses. The community is reputed to number some 1 million people, overwhelmingly concentrated in Syria, but with pockets in Lebanon and Israel. For generations, the Druze proved willing to take extraordinary risks to protect their fragile autonomy. Late in 1895, for example, Syria's Ottoman government was presented with an opportunity to punish the Druze, after quarrels broke out with their Muslim neighbours. Together with Kurds, Bedouins, and Circassians, Ottoman troops burned down the Druze village of Majdal Shams. Though the Ottoman soldiers outnumbered the Druze two-and-a-half to one, historian Shakeeb Salih writes, they were unable to subdue the uprising. An arrangement involving amnesties and cash compensation was eventually arrived at. The inexorable forces of the market, though, brought about significant changes in the outlook of the Druze by 1925. According to Salih, the merchants and moneylenders of Damascus became frequent visitors to Jabal al-Druze and Hawran, where they financed the cultivation of crops such as gram and cereals. For their part, Druze elites began to winter in Damascus, imbibing its culture and integrating into its political milieu. Following the 1925 revolt, Khoury writes, the Druze case became a template for other nationalist movements breaking out across the Middle East, eventually leading to the independence of Syria and Lebanon. Also read: Afghanistan is starving—and its farmers are fighting to save the poppy The power game Like many post-colonial states, the scholar Joshua Landis writes, independent Syria tried to stamp its authority on the Druze brutally from 1946. The four-year rule of Adib Shishakli, from December 1949 to February 1954, resulted in the crushing of Druze local leadership. 'A new form of Druze communal consciousness took root among Druze civilian politicians and, most importantly, among Druze military officers as a result,' Landis notes. Shishkali was eventually overthrown in a coup d'etat, in which Druze officers played a key role. The Druze used their position not only to seek economic privileges from Damascus, but also to gain recognition for the wide-ranging autonomy they had enjoyed under the French. This battle was not easily won, though. The government hit back, rolling back subsidies, choking the lucrative smuggling routes into Jordan, and most importantly, destroying the profitable hashish trade. Tribal leaders such as Sultan Pasha al-Atrash found their influence diminished, just as a new, Left-leaning generation of Druze emerged. Faced with vicious ethnopolitical propaganda and economic decline, the Druze found other means to act. In 1953, Druze officers Colonel Amin Abu Asaf and Captain Mohammed al-Atrash were plotting a coup. The army, thus, became a stage for the making and unmaking of power, with Alevi, Kurds, Christians, and Druze all competing to protect their interests against the majority. Also read: What's behind Israel's strikes in Syria & who are the 'Druze' that Netanyahu has vowed to protect A grim future? For the Druze, support from Israel—where they constitute a recognised official minority—is now critical. As historian Laila Parsons notes, early Jewish Agency officials operating in Palestine saw the benefits of developing ties to local minorities, and Itzhak Ben Tzvi—later to become Israel's second president—cultivated ties with the Druze. For the most part, the Druze stayed neutral in the Arab revolt of 1936-1939. The defeat of a small Druze detachment fighting the Israeli defence forces near the settlement of Ramat-Yohanan, wrote Parsons, stilled Druze desire to interject themselves in the conflict. In the war of 1947-1948, the Druze emerged better off than their Palestinian Christian and Muslim neighbours. They now had the choice of living as minorities in a Jewish state or as minorities in an Arab state. For most Druze, the choice was simple. For the Druze left in Syria and Lebanon, though, the future likely looks very different. Israeli air power was committed to protect Sweida from Bedouin tribes attacking the Druze. Still, Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa is an ally of the United States and is seen as key to the suppression of the Islamic State and al-Qaeda. Israeli support for Druze defiance cannot, therefore, be taken for granted in the future. Even more critically, the Druze have opened themselves up to a long war with the Bedouin tribes and their Islamist supporters within Syria's new regime. Looking into the fires raging in Syria, it's hard not to see only darkness: The ethnoreligious conflicts that the Ba'ath state managed—and occasionally crushed—have returned to the centre stage of political life. The acquisition of power again involves access to guns and weapons, not political legitimacy. The genuinely federal structures that Syria's minorities demanded during their march to independence could offer a way forward. But there's little hope that a society in which jihadists see themselves as victorious will be prepared to concede it. The author is Contributing Editor at ThePrint. His X handle is @praveenswami.

What to know about trial of Brazil's former President Jair Bolsonaro

Rio de Janeiro, Jul 20 (AP) Brazil's former President Jair Bolsonaro will wear an electronic ankle monitor on orders from the Supreme Court, where he is on trial for allegedly masterminding a coup plot to remain in office despite his defeat in the 2022 election. The case received renewed attention after President Donald Trump directly tied a 50% tariff on Brazilian imported goods to Bolsonaro's judicial situation, which Trump called a ' witch hunt." The Supreme Court's order for Bolsonaro to wear an ankle monitor, among other restrictions, came after Federal Police and prosecutors said Bolsonaro is a flight risk. Authorities, listing multiple social media posts, also accused Bolsonaro of working with his son Eduardo to incite the United States to interfere in the trial and impose sanctions against Brazilian officials. On Friday, the US State Department announced visa restrictions on Brazilian judicial officials, prompting President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva to condemn what he called the unacceptable interference of one country in another's justice system. Here's what you need to know about Bolsonaro's trial: The charges against Bolsonaro The prosecution accuses Bolsonaro of leading an armed criminal organization, attempting to stage a coup and attempting the violent abolition of the democratic rule of law, aggravated damage, and deterioration of listed heritage sites. A federal police investigation placed Bolsonaro at the top of a criminal organization that had been active since at least 2021. Police say that after Bolsonaro's loss to Lula, the organization conspired to overturn the election result. Part of that plot included a plan to kill Lula and a Supreme Court justice, the prosecution alleges. It also says that the Jan 8 riot when Bolsonaro supporters ransacked top government buildings a week after Lula took office was an attempt to force military intervention and oust the new president. Prosecutor-General Paulo Gonet says Bolsonaro's actions 'were not limited to a passive stance of resistance to defeat, but were a conscious effort to create an environment conducive to violence and a coup." In the court order unsealed Friday, Justice Alexandre de Moraes said Bolsonaro and his son may also have committed the crimes of coercion during a legal proceeding, obstruction of an investigation involving a criminal organization and attack on Brazil's sovereignty. What Bolsonaro says Bolsonaro has repeatedly denied the allegations and asserted that he's the target of political persecution. He has echoed Trump and called the trial a 'witch hunt." The far-right former leader has now been barred from using social media, but on Thursday, he said on X that 'those who challenge the system are being punished, silenced, and isolated." Regarding the restrictive measures carried out on Friday, Bolsonaro called them a 'supreme humiliation." 'I never thought about leaving Brazil, I never thought about going to an embassy, but the precautionary measures are because of that," he told journalists in Brasilia. Next steps After the prosecution called for a guilty verdict in its final allegations issued Tuesday, the defence will soon present its case, likely in the coming weeks. The panel of Supreme Court justices that opened the trial against Bolsonaro will vote on whether to convict or acquit him. Experts say a decision is expected before the end of the year. A guilty verdict on the coup plot charge carries a sentence of up to 12 years, which could, along with guilty verdicts on other charges, bring decades behind bars. But Antonio Jose Teixeira Martins, a law professor at Rio de Janeiro State University, said Bolsonaro could be detained even before there's a verdict. 'Whether this happens or not depends on how events unfold from now on, that is if these new measures prove sufficient to guarantee public order, the application of criminal law and prevent the risk of escape," Teixeira Martins said. Brazil's top electoral court has already banned Bolsonaro from running in elections until 2030 over abuse of power while in office and casting unfounded doubts on the country's electronic voting system.
