7.Information has appeared online about an allegedly previously unknown prediction by the famous Bulgarian clairvoyant Vanga concerning the year 2025.According to these data, Vanga allegedly predicted the beginning of the “end of the world” during this period, and not in 2023, as previously thought.

Vanga's alleged prophecies paint a gloomy picture of the future, but these “predictions” should be taken with a great deal of skepticism.It is important to emphasize that there is no reliable evidence that Vanga actually made such statements.

Many experts are inclined to believe that such “prophecies” are often the result of misinterpretation, and sometimes deliberate hoaxes.
