In a recent post on Medium and LinkedIn, Indian astrologer Kushal Kumar has predicted that World War 3 could begin as soon as June 18, 2024.
Kumar, known for his use of Vedic astrology to forecast global events, cited planetary alignments as the basis for his prediction.
According to Kumar, “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 further detailed, “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 prediction has sparked significant attention on social media, where such prophecies often gain traction.
Kumar’s forecast follows a historical trend of astrological predictions regarding global conflicts, with figures like Nostradamus and Baba Vanga having made similar claims in the past.
However, the scientific community widely regards astrology as pseudoscience, urging skepticism towards such predictions.
Global political dynamics have generally steered away from all-out global conflicts since World War II, despite occasional regional tensions.
The prediction coincided with recent news that UK officials have launched a website advising citizens on preparations for potential conflicts.
This juxtaposition has led to increased public interest and discussion on the possibility of global conflict.
As Astrologer “predicts” exact date of World War 3, experts caution against taking them as accurate forecasts of future events.
The societal impact of such predictions on public perception and anxiety remains a notable concern.
