Iran Drone Strikes Bahrain as Gulf Nations Unite Against Tehran Aggression

Iran's Revolutionary Guard launched drone strikes on Bahrain — home to the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet — triggering unified condemnation from Gulf nations and threatening to collapse a recently signed U.S.-Iran ceasefire memorandum. This rapid escalation across the Middle East reflects the instability and 'wars and rumours of wars' Jesus warned would characterise the end times, with the region at the heart of biblical prophecy in open conflict. The Strait of Hormuz and Persian Gulf corridor sits squarely within the geography of ancient Persia (modern Iran), whose aggression is foreshadowed in Ezekiel's prophecy of a northern and eastern coalition rising against Israel in the last days.
