Athos Salomé, the Brazilian psychic known as the ‘Living Nostradamus,’ is back with a stark warning for 2026. Already famous for predicting Queen Elizabeth II’s death and the Covid-19 pandemic, Salomé now foresees a world on the edge of multiple crises.
In his latest predictions for Tyla, Salomé singled out two unlikely flashpoints for conflict, the Sahel in Africa and the Arctic Circle. “With the rise of extremist groups in northern regions of Niger, I believe that the area could become a scene of indirect confrontation between nations seeking to preserve their influence after the departure of Western troops,” he said.
The Sahel is a swath of land separating Africa’s Sahara Desert from the southern savannas. It has recently become a terror hotspot, with ISIS and Al Qaeda-affiliated groups causing chaos. Countries like Nigeria, Chad, Sudan, Senegal, Mali, and Niger are grappling with kidnappings and ransom demands, often targeting schoolchildren.
Western troops have pulled back, leaving local security forces stretched thin. “This year alone has seen a boom in terrorist activity across the Sahel, which has been described previously as the epicenter of terrorism, with over 30 percent of all terror incidents taking place in this region,” Salomé said.
The Arctic, on the other hand, is emerging as a strategic battleground in the high north. Russia, NATO, and allied nations are beefing up military capabilities, accelerated by Finland and Sweden joining NATO. Melting ice has opened new shipping routes and access to energy reserves, raising tensions.
“The most recent interceptions indicate that Russia is moving missile systems to strategic areas in the Arctic. This increases the likelihood of direct confrontations with NATO during the ice melt in 2026, a time when new shipping routes and energy reserves could play a crucial role,” Salomé warned.
For Salomé, these two hotspots could trigger a wider conflict, potentially escalating toward a global war, with proxy battles spilling beyond Ukraine, Sudan, and the Congo.
But war isn’t the only threat he predicts. A massive solar storm could hit Earth between March 12 and 15, 2026, potentially causing widespread power outages. “The possibility of large-scale power outages is real, especially in more susceptible electrical systems, but nothing concrete,” he noted.
Disease is another looming danger. While Salomé doesn’t predict a repeat of Covid-19, he flagged H5N5, a bird flu variant affecting U.S. poultry and cattle populations. The virus recently claimed its first human life, raising alarms about its potential to spread. “Global monitoring needs to be strengthened, especially considering that the EU is rushing to authorize a modified mRNA vaccine,” he said.
Cyberwarfare and high-tech attacks also feature prominently in Salomé’s vision. He predicts large-scale infrastructure collapses triggered by electromagnetic pulse technology, with countries like Israel, Iran, the U.S., and North Korea potentially exploiting artificial intelligence as a weapon in global conflicts.
Salomé’s forecasts extend even into space. He foresees Russia and China competing for cosmic resources, potentially creating a new front in international rivalry. Back on Earth, these high-tech conflicts, coupled with political instability and environmental pressures, paint a picture of a year fraught with upheaval.
At just 38, Salomé has become a leading figure in modern prophecy. Beyond wars and disease, he predicted the global fall of Microsoft, Elon Musk’s Twitter acquisition, and Donald Trump’s electoral victory. His followers are now bracing for 2026, a year he warns will test the resilience of nations and humanity alike.
