Iran's FM Reveals Near-Death Escape as Israel's Opening Strikes Decimated Leadership

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi has given a rare firsthand account of surviving Israel's opening strikes, describing scenes of total destruction at a senior leadership compound and admitting catastrophic security failures within the Islamic Republic. The account confirms Iran's military and governmental infrastructure was struck with devastating precision — a historic blow to one of Israel's most sworn enemies and a nation deeply embedded in end-times prophecy. Scripture long foretold a reckoning for Persia (modern Iran) in the context of Israel's last-days conflicts, with Ezekiel 38 listing Persia among the coalition that moves against Israel before God's intervention.
