Iran has launched ballistic missiles at northern Israel, breaching an existing ceasefire agreement, with Israeli officials confirming a significant forceful response is forthcoming. This escalation between Iran and Israel marks a dangerous new phase in the regional conflict, placing the two nations once again on a direct war footing. Scripture consistently identifies Persia (modern-day Iran) as a key aggressor in the end-times conflict against Israel, most notably in Ezekiel 38:5, where Persia is listed among the nations that will come against the land of Israel.
