News Update

Operation Roaring Lion (and Epic Fury) against Iran entered its 7th day today. U.S. and Israeli airstrikes continue to degrade Iran’s missile capabilities, which reportedly are already 90% less than they were at the start of the operation. Yesterday, the Israeli Air Force struck the Parchin complex, one of Iran’s largest and most sensitive defense industry sites. The facility houses major military industries, including the production and storage of warheads, engines and various systems used in Iran’s missile and munitions programs. It also contains facilities for the repair and maintenance of equipment used in the country’s heavy military industry. Iran managed to fire 9 missiles at Israel, all of which were intercepted.

Israel continues to strike Hezbollah targets in Lebanon and Hezbollah is firing rockets and drones at communities in the north. The IDF has expanded and reinforced positions in southern Lebanon. Defense Minister Katz said, “The concept that we defend the communities and the border from within enemy territory is clear, including inside Lebanon. There were five positions, and these positions have now expanded significantly. In addition, our forces are pushing forward so that the soldiers and the army serve as the shield protecting the communities from direct anti-tank fire.”

Let’s continue to pray for victory, the fall of the evil Iranian regime, and peace in Israel, the region and the world.
