Iran's Islamic regime has executed dozens of political prisoners and opposition members in 2026 while its Revolutionary Guard assumes collective governance, signalling a regime gripped by fear of its own people rather than secure in its power. The accelerating internal collapse of one of the world's most prophetically significant nations — a key player in end-times alignments involving Israel — warrants close attention as Scripture identifies Persia (modern Iran) among the nations that will move against Israel in the last days. Ezekiel 38:5 lists Persia explicitly among the coalition that descends on Israel, making Iran's political trajectory a direct prophetic indicator.
