Iran Closes Strait of Hormuz Again After Israeli Attacks on Lebanon

Iranian armed forces have re-closed the Strait of Hormuz following Israeli strikes on Lebanon, just days after agreeing to reopen the critical waterway under a US deal, sending global economic shockwaves. This escalation between Israel, Iran, and the United States signals a dangerous convergence of the world's most volatile powers in the Middle East, a region Scripture identifies as central to end-times conflict. The Bible warns of wars and rumours of wars, economic disruption, and a final gathering of nations against Israel as precursors to the return of Christ (Matthew 24:6-7; Revelation 16:12).
