After bombings erupted in Syria, thanks to coalition forces, world powers are again flexing their muscles and tensions are no doubt rising. Rockets from the US, UK and France slammed into an alleged chemical factory in the Middle Eastern country in reaction to a chemical attack on civilians.
While Donald Trump and Theresa May have heralded the move as 'Mission Accomplished' and necessary to restore peace in the region, it's definitely poked the Russian bear.
A statement released by the Kremlin said: "Vladimir Putin, in particular, stressed that if such actions committed in violation of the U.N. Charter continue, then it will inevitably lead to chaos in international relations."
It's never fun when the word 'chaos' is thrown into the mix.
But it's even more chilling when you consider the disturbing prediction made by a woman who allegedly foretold of Islamic State, Brexit, 9/11 and the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami.
Bulgarian psychic known as Baba Vanga, who is known as 'The Nostradamus of the Balkans', reportedly predicted that Russia - and more specifically Vladimir Putin - will go on to dominate the world.
She died in 1996 - well before any of the events that she predicted, and she's envisioned a world run by Mr Putin.
The bleak forecast was made to a writer called Valentin Sidorov in 1979, Vanga said: "All will thaw, as if ice, only one remain untouched - Vladimir's glory, glory of Russia.

"Too much it is brought in a victim. Nobody can stop Russia.
"All will be removed by her from the way and not only will be kept, but also becomes the lord of the world."
OK, so it's a little bit vague, but these things often are - it's still pretty creepy though, isn't it?
In addition to the recent airstrikes on Syria, the UK and Russia aren't exactly the best of pals anyway following the alleged poisoning of Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia with a Novichok nerve agent in Salisbury.
British Prime Minister Theresa May has booted 23 Russian diplomats in response Moscow kicked out 23 UK diplomats.
It's kind of like when you don't invite someone to your birthday party and they respond with: "Well, you're not coming to my birthday party, so there!"
Apparently Baba Vanga got her mystic powers after being caught up in a tornado, which unfortunately also blinded her. Why the hell wasn't she predicting lotto numbers for us all, eh?
