A new map illustrates the catastrophic effects a large-scale nuclear attack could have on the United States, predicting potential fatalities of up to 250 million Americans. Most cities along the East Coast, Midwest, and South could be targeted, with severe fallout affecting areas like California and large sections of the Midwest. The map, developed using FEMA data, highlights not only populous cities but also key military installations as prime targets. The growing geopolitical tensions, especially between the US, Russia, and China, have raised concerns about the likelihood of such an attack due to the deterioration of nuclear arms control treaties.
Every populated city on the East Coast, Midwest, West Coast and South COULD be targeted, killing up to 250 million Americans - about 75 percent of the country's population, according to the map.
The risk of nuclear war has increased dramatically in the past two years as the US and Russia have abandoned long-standing nuclear arms control treaties.
