Nuclear war could kill over 90 million people, experts warn.

As tensions between Russia and the West continue to rise, a growing number of experts are sounding the alarm about the devastating consequences of nuclear war.

Experts Warn of Billions of Deaths

A recent study by leading arms scholars at Princeton University has predicted that a full-scale nuclear conflict between Russia and the United States could kill over 90 million people in just the first few hours.

According to Sharon Weiner, one of the top American scholars on nuclear conflicts, a chain reaction of catastrophes would follow, including nuclear firestorms, massive destruction of cities, and a prolonged period of climate disruption known as a 'nuclear winter'.

This could lead to widespread crop failures, devastating climate change, and potentially even the collapse of entire ecosystems.

Weiner's team used advanced computer models to simulate an intercontinental nuclear war in real-time detail, taking into account the real-world nuclear arsenals and battle plans of both Russia and the United States.

The study's findings have sparked a renewed call for rapid nuclear disarmament and the adoption of the United Nations' Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.

Experts say that abolishing atomic arms is not only a moral imperative but also a crucial step in preventing a global catastrophe.
