Dr Peter Vincent Pry, executive director of the Task Force on National and Homeland Security in the US, has previously warned that North Korea may have deadly electromagnetic pulse (EMP) weapons.
But, according to Dr Pry, there might be even more to fear than first thought.
Writing for the Hill, Dr Pry said an EMP blast in the upper atmosphere could kill more people in the long run than a direct nuclear blast on a city itself.
Indirectly, an EMP attack could mean millions of fatalities, agonising deaths mostly due to slow starvation.
Since modern infrastructures are dependent on electronics, an EMP attack could render electric grids, cellphones and communications, banking, transportation, food and water distribution systems practically useless.
It might take months for the full effects to be felt, but with food rotting away in refrigerators and no means to get produce from farms, millions will eventually perish.
“An EMP attack would be the most militarily effective use of one or a few nuclear weapons, while also being the most acceptable nuclear option in world opinion,” Dr Pry said.
“An EMP attack will kill far more people than nuclear blasting a city through indirect effects.
