The year 2024 began with intense speculation of the Third World War. The concept itself has been a topic of debate. The devastating impacts of the First and Second World Wars have left such a mark on global memory that the idea of another global-level conflict is not only terrifying but also compelling.

Many astrologers, including Nostradamus and Kushal Kumar, have come forward and made predictions about WW3 even though its possibility remains uncertain.

Indian Astrologer Kushal Kumar has ‘predicted’ the WW3 being just weeks away. In a post on Medium, an open publishing platform, Kumar claimed that World War 3 is only weeks away. He also shared the post on LinkedIn.

“2024 was predicted to be majorly worrisome in relation to war conditions in hotspots across the world, particularly around May 8 – it was indicated carrying highest escalation in such war fronts as Koreas, China-Taiwan, the Middle East involving Israel and others in the Middle East, and Ukraine-Russia, anger of NATO could also find expression,” he said in the post.

He also revealed the date on which he thinks the global war will break out.

In his article, he said, “Now, Tuesday, 18 June 2024 has the strongest planetary stimulus to trigger WW3 although 10 and 29 June may have a say as well”.

The claims come just days after UK officials launched a website informing Brits about what they need to stock up on in case war breaks out.

Who is Kushal Kumar – the new ‘Nostradamus’?

Kushal Kumar is a Vedic astrologer who uses charts that show planetary alignment to make ‘predictions’ about future events. He has been called the new ‘Nostradamus’, a French astrologer best known for his book ‘Les Propheties’ published in 1555. His book was a set of 942 poetic quatrains believed to predict future events. Many credit Nostradamus with foreseeing significant historical events through these verses.
