A Russian TV channel that supports President Vladimir Putin recently released a disturbing video showing what a massive nuclear strike on London would look like. The video is from Tsargrad.TV, and it describes a catastrophic event that could change everything.
What the Video Shows
In the simulation, a powerful nuclear warhead with a strength of 750 kilotons hits London. The explosion is depicted as so strong that it would immediately kill around 850,000 people and injure about two million others. The narrator explains that the bomb explodes over the city, creating a fireball hotter than the sun, which expands rapidly and would vaporize everything in its path.
The center of this explosion is shown as Westminster, a crucial area in London. Anyone caught in the immediate vicinity wouldn’t feel the blast because it would happen so quickly. However, those living within a 5-kilometer radius would face the most destruction. This includes well-known areas like Camden, Kensington, and Brixton.
The Aftermath of the Explosion
The simulation illustrates the devastating impact of such an explosion. Buildings would crumble, and debris would fill the streets, creating dangerous conditions for anyone left alive. The narrator warns that the initial death toll could exceed 250,000, with around 600,000 injuries from radiation burns within a 10-kilometer radius.
In this area, anything flammable, like petrol stations and cars, would catch fire, causing even more destruction. The video emphasizes that explosive facilities would also add to the chaos, spreading the devastation across a large part of London, from Camden to Greenwich and Islington to Wandsworth.
Why This Matters Now
The video was shared by Moscow News, and it raises alarm bells about the current state of global tensions. The tweet accompanying the video warns that a nuclear strike simulation indicates that “World War III is approaching.”
With fears of nuclear war at their highest since the Cold War, the situation is serious. Recently, Putin stated that using long-range missiles against Russian targets would mean NATO is officially at war with Russia, escalating the already tense conflict.
This video serves as a grim reminder of the potential consequences of escalating conflicts and the frightening reality of nuclear weapons in today’s world.
