Zechariah 14:22 indeed sounds like nuclear weaponry.
And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.

Many of us believe the last days were ushered in at the death burial and resurrection of Christ. And these prophecies begin to occur from around the second century up until today.
Revelation 6 the first seal _ the white horse the white horse given to him power to conquer - look at the leaders of most powerful countries of yesteryears and today they are still conquering or trying to conquer.
Second seal the red horse giving him the power to take peace from Earth that they shall kill one another. There is less peace on Earth today than it was 100 years ago and less piece 100 years ago than it was 500 years ago and so forth and so on. As time continues and more people populate the Earth there is less peace. And man has become the perfect killing machine of each other.
The third seal the black horse with the balances _ price increasing on everything and the wages that most people make in most countries is not enough, even with two people working two jobs, they still have to scrape. I remember the prices from the 1950s 1960s and that was only 60 years ago or so it's a big difference in most items. And not only has the items increased in price, but they shrunk in size and diminished in value.
The fourth seal horse - The pale horse death and hell, the power to kill with hunger, death, and beast. As population increases there are millions who go to bed hungry every night, and most of these plagues that kills thousands / millions comes from animals.
The fifth seal is not the Earth but for what is going on in heaven, where they are crying out to the Lord how long will it be.
The sixth seal _ present day dealing with signs in the earthquakes, the Sun, and the Moon. The Angels stopping the wind from blowing indicates the shift in the weather and the weather is somewhat extreme / whether it's heat, or coldness, or rain, hurricanes, tornadoes, tsunamis. Waiting for the children of God to be sealed. Waiting for the day when the world will see him coming and many running in fear trying to hide from the wrath that is to come.
The seventh seal _ was all quiet and man's time for about 30 minutes.
The seventh trumpets __ the first trumpet destroying greenery - we are having more forest fires these days and destroying more plant life. Plus how many trees do men cut down to use for lumber and paper and wood products.
The second trumpet _ destroying marine life in the oceans..... Oil spills is killing a lot of marine life, redtide, pollution, chemical waste, man's over excessive fishing.
3rd trumpet _ destroying marine life in freshwater rivers and such - pollution, chemical waste, and over excessive fishing has also taking toll on marine life and rivers and lakes and such.
Fourth trumpet - the Sun and the Moon and stars will be affected whether something naturally or militarily occurs on Earth, or something occurs in space. We are still living in the timeline.
The 5th trumpet star falling from heaven to Earth with keys to the bottomless pit setting loose creatures to torture those who didn't have the seal of God _ Hunger, and these wars, terrorist attacks, sicknesses, everyday life with murders, rapes and all types of crime and such.
The sixth trumpet let loose of the angels that were bound in the river Euphrates that a third part of man should be killed - beginning with the millions that plagues have killed - wars have killed - murders that have taken place - it is just the beginning of what more is to come.
The 7th trumpet - the kingdoms of this Earth have become the kingdoms of our Lord, he's here.
