A man who claims to be able to accurately predict the future has said this year will see massive technological blackouts due to the use of advanced weapons systems.
Athos Salome, 36, from Brazil, describes himself as a ‘parapsychologist’ and says he was able to foresee such seismic developments as the COVID-19 pandemic, Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter and even the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
Often referred to as the ‘Living Nostradamus,’ Salome told the Mail that advancements in modern warfare, in particular the emergence of electromagnetic pulse technology (EMP), are likely to see global disruption take hold before the end of 2024.
He claims that at some point in the second half of this year, the world will experience ‘three days of darkness’ due to trials of these weapons.
Salome believes these trials will come amid a growing threat of global-level conflict as tensions between Israel and Iran continue to mount.
He also suggests that developments in artificial intelligence will increase the incidence of such tests in the coming years.
He said: ‘AI again emerges as a factor possibly serving as both a peacekeeping tool and an instigator of fresh confrontations.

‘Advanced nations, including the United States have been quietly advancing EMP technologies for security purposes.
‘The US has been exploring EMP capabilities since Operation Prime tests in the 1960s aiming to use this technology to neutralize threats with minimal physical damage.
‘Similarly Russia and China are investing in EMP technologies as tools to disrupt infrastructures of potential foes.
