The world watched in horror as over 200 rockets rushed into Israeli airspace. As they stared in confusion, everyone's only thought was, "Is this the start of World war 3?" The Russia-Ukraine theater of battle is located further east, and the Middle east is currently experiencing turmoil. There has never been a closer call for World war III than there is now. World war 3 was one of the most talked-about subjects in india and throughout the world on the social media platform X. For five hours, with over two lakh postings, World war 3 and #WorldWar3 were two of the top three trending topics in India.

Approximately 3 lakh people died worldwide during World Wars 3 and 4.

Donald trump, a Republican presidential contender and former US president, also issued a warning that a global conflict was imminent.

"Now, war, or the threat of war, is raging everywhere, and the two incompetent people running our country... are leading us to the brink of World war III," trump stated.

"This is what the policies of weakness and appeasement have brought to the world," he remarked, directing criticism at US President Joe Biden and Democratic nominee for president Kamala Harris.

Republicans have been threatening to send the US into war under Kamala Harris' leadership.

Says Republican leader Tulsi Gabbard, "A vote for Kamala harris is a vote for nuclear war," on october 1.

"If Kamala is allowed to serve as commander-in-chief, she would feel the need to 'prove' how tough she is by pushing us into an unnecessary, costly war that does not serve the interests of the American people," Gabbard, a leader from the Hindu community in the United States

However, there is a widespread belief that World war 3 may break out before the results of the US presidential election on november 5 are announced.

"The likelihood of a third world war is greater than ever. Humanity would be destroyed in a world war. "I hope that our leaders will make wise decisions," said Lex Fridman, presenter of the Lex Fridman Podcast.

As iran launched 181 ballistic missiles into israel on october 1 in retribution for the deaths of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, commander of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps abbas Nilforoushan, and head of Hezbollah Hassan Nasrallah, people all around the world felt uneasy.

Israel began a ground operation into lebanon earlier on october 1 with the goal of taking out Hezbollah, a terrorist group supported by Iran.

Since Hamas's attack on october 7, which claimed hundreds of Israeli lives and resulted in several kidnappings, tensions in the Middle east have been high. israel has attacked Gaza, the home base of Hamas. And there are the already-activated militias in syria and iraq that receive support from Iran.

People are concerned that the direct Iranian strike on israel marks the start of World war 3 since they are just hearing about the escalation. With everyone's interests harmed by a domino effect and the world being more interconnected than ever, a World war 3 scenario still seems unlikely. The world is going to do its hardest to avoid that tipping point.
