A Russian media network that the Western media is calling “a staunchly pro-Putin propaganda TV channel” broadcast a shocking four-minute video this week that portrays London being bombed with a nuclear weapon, resulting in 850,000 deaths.

Reminiscent of the Operation Blackjack series published by The Telegraph (UK) back on Jan. 12, 2009, the four-minute scene showed a nuclear weapon being detonated in the heart of London.

“Imagine for a moment that the unimaginable happens,” the video, which aired on Tsargrad’s Telegram channel, said. “A nuclear weapon explodes over London. In this documentary, we explore the devastating consequences of this catastrophe.”

“In the simulation, we will use a warhead with a yield of 750 kilotons. That’s a pretty powerful charge. Upon detonation, a fireball as hot as the sun rapidly expands, reaching a radius of 950 meters (1,039 yards). Anything trapped inside this fireball is instantly vaporized.”

The documentary goes on to explain that in the simulation, the epicenter of the nuclear bombing occurred in Westminster. Those closest to the blast “won’t even feel anything because the nerve impulse transmission speed is slower,” the video explains.

“Within 5 km [3 miles] of the epicenter the blast radius city of London, Camden town, Kensington, Brixton these areas will receive the most destruction.”

Is it about to go down?

After the blast, London’s buildings will be left destroyed with debris filling the streets. Everyone who is still alive and remains will face really dangerous conditions well into the foreseeable future.

“Given the population density in central London, the initial death toll could exceed 250,000 people and around 600,000 injured within a radius of 10 km (6.25 miles) the radiation will cause third degree burns,” the video states.

“Within that radius, anything that can burn will catch fire: [petrol] stations, automobiles, power substations, gas infrastructure. Explosive facilities will explode and amplify the effect of the devastation over a huge area, including areas from Camden to Greenwich and Islington to Wandsworth.”

In addition to the 850,000 expected deaths caused directly by the blast, the video estimates that another 450,000 people will die from burns, debris, injuries, or radiation sickness, while another one million or so will be left traumatized, probably for the rest of their lives.

“Radiation sickness in particular will take lives days and weeks later,” the video states. “In time, about 100,000 more will be added to the death toll.”

The video in question actually first came out about three months ago. It did not receive global attention until Tsargrad drew attention to it by sharing it publicly on Telegram.

“Within an 18 km (11 mile) radius of the blast, the shockwave will be enough to shatter windows, causing additional casualties to people who come to the windows when they see the nuclear blast,” the video further warns.

“The shockwave will reach Hounslow, Edgware, and Enfield. Depending on the wind, the fallout could spread well beyond the immediate blast zone, potentially affecting areas up to five to 10 km away, causing damage even in regions such as Essex or Surrey.”

Keep in mind that all of these estimates thus far assume that a nuke is detonated in the air over London rather than on the ground. Should an atomic bomb be detonated on the ground, “the fallout map would be greatly expanded and the radioactive fallout could even reach Manchester, infecting people, land, and animals.”

Tsargrad, by the way, aired a segment back in 2018 of Vladimir Putin ominously stating that in the event of nuclear war, “We will go to heaven as martyrs, and they (in the West) will simply die because they will not even have time to repent.”
