'The news' is correct because they talk about a particular news of world's end but how can we use 'the' with papers, when there is no particular paper is defined, say the telegraph or the Hindu.

End of world "is" certain is what I feel should be the option.

Shouldn't it be? End of the world 'IS' certain?

There should be "nuclear was broken out" because after was we can't use present tense verb using s or es.

I think a would be the answer because many is a indefinite pronoun which is always used for plural forms so instead of has there should be have.
