'Day of Repentance': Israel strikes multiple targets across Iran in retaliatory strikes

The attack occurred in three major waves, with the second and third waves targeting Iranian drone and missile production sites, hitting over 20 targets.

Israel confirmed it had struck numerous military sites during its retaliatory strikes on Iran on Saturday. The attack was declared over by 5:45 a.m., just as the sun began rising over Tehran, according to public broadcaster KAN11.


The attack occurred in three major waves, US and Israeli officials said. The second and third waves targeted Iranian drone and missile production sites, hitting over 20 targets, according to Axios and the New York Times.

Iran told AFP that it had not received any reports of injuries from the strikes.
Defense Minister Yoav Gallant was directing the attacks from a secure complex in IDF headquarters in Tel Aviv, according to Israeli media.

Impressive Israeli operation: attack on 20 sites in Iran!!!
Just as if it was another operation in Lebanon or Gaza.
Iran is naked!
Iran in an effort to dwarf the scope, perhaps to close the event.

The importance of the operation is also in what was not damaged:
no nuclear sites,
No oil sites
And not the American election system.

 
This is so "funny".

Iran says, there were no attacks, let alone Israeli attacks.
Saudi Arabia condems the attacks, whomever did it.
Hamas condemns the Israeli attacks on Iranian soil.



I saw that. Ridiculously funny
Those Islamists have so much pride, and will not accept when they are defeated so they call it "martyrdom* or "nothing happened".

The unrepentant Islamists will not have a chance to be delusional but will have a reality check when they meet up with The Most High God Almighty in His fury
 
I'm a little disappointed. 20 days and 400 sites destroyed, including the nuke sites and critical infrastructure, would have been better and possibly would have led to regime change.

I read a long time ago that the leaders of the IDF sometimes orient themselves on attack tactics from the Bible. Do you remember when the Lord commanded the Israelites to make an ambush? I am convinced that this attack is not over. From what Gallant, Netanjahu and other leaders have said, there should be more to come.

„Retired Israeli Brigadier General Amir Avivi told ABC News today, that the upcoming Israeli Response to Iran’s latest Ballistic Missile Attack will be “Fierce, Strong, and Very Surprising” with it marking the beginning of a War which is expected to last “Many Months.” (By the way, he not only predicted the ground attack on Hezbollah, which happened.)

The experts - including Avivi - talk about it here. An excellent channel!
 
I think they listened too much to the Washington D.C. usurpers and may be waiting for a Trump administration before they do what needs to be done and that's to destroy everything nuclear related in Iran.
Funny you would say that about waiting for Trump to be in office. This was Amir's comment when he found out that it was "completed".


Has Israel just conducted a few hours ago the best exercise for a future attack on Iran’s nuclear sites once Trump is in office?
20 sites were attacked across Iran without any significant resistance.
After last night - their air defense system is even less effective than it was!
 
The Israeli Air Force has destroyed the Iranian Air Defense.

Iran’s air defense system relied on five major radars, integrated with their S-400 missile batteries.

The first radar, stationed in Isfahan, was destroyed following an Iranian attack in April, signaling to Iran that Israel possessed highly advanced capabilities.

Today, Israel eliminated the remaining 4 radars and missile batteries.

Militarily, Iran is weak. Their bluster apparently hides their weakness to some. Their ballistic missile capability can definitely do a lot of damage to another nation, but it would take a lot more than that to defeat a nation/win a war.
 
Looks like Israel's attack was a “preparation”:

📡 Destroyed air defense en route to Iran in Syria & Iraq

📡 Destroyed radars of S-300 & S-400 air defense in Iran

Now that Iran's air defense is fully blinded, Israel can freely attack its nuclear facilities.

I hope that's all it was because it didn't look like anything more. But I suspect they're done with directly attacking Iran for the moment and will continue to focus on destroying hamas and much of hezbollah along with any other threats that pop up.

I'd say the chances of Iran directly attacking Israel near term (before they can lob nukes) v.s. doing it through proxies is almost non-existent. The powers that be in Iran don't want to be humiliated, and do want to both live and remain in power.

Which brings the question, was this prophecy being fulfilled or just another day of war for Israel? I dont think this will lead to EZ38 because Russia is too bogged down to switch gears and try and assemble a force to attack Israel. Iran has now been shown to be militarily weak, despite the blustering by their soon to be expired leaders.

Israel is a very powerful military, and even stronger when you consider Who is protecting them.

However, this does not mean it wont eventually lead to EZ38, but IMO, not yet.

Agreed.

Prophecy (in my opinion, take with a large grain of salt please) was not fulfilled last night, but it was laying groundwork for a future fulfillment of Ezek 32 and Jeremiah 49 the Elam sections of both.

I think (again take me with a large grain of salt) that Ez 32 and Jeremiah 49 are part of a larger group of events that include Damascus in Isaiah (also in Jeremiah and alluded to in Ezek 32 as Assyria) as well as the Psalm 83 nations (who all show up in one form or other in Jeremiah 49 and Ezek 32)

I think as a group they are why Russia and Iran, along with Turkey, Libya/Tunisia and the Sudan (Ethiopia in the Bible is actually Sudan today) get together to invade Israel in Ezek 38

Israel has to be living in peace by the time of Ezek 38- she is anything but right now. AND she's back, living in peace from some war she just endured. Plus she's living in peace IN THE WEST BANK area of the mountains of Israel. THEN Ezek 38 happens.

I think we just saw the preliminary ground work for a coalition (Israel does seem to be coordinating with America and Britain on this right now even if she doesn't like to)
 
I did something strange in my second to last post. Sorry about that. New moderator stumbles around wrecking site inadvertantly. thanks to @Work4Peanuts letting me know. Here's what I tried to post

Something that might pertain to why Israel held back

It's in one of the 2 big Elam passages this time in Jeremiah 49:36 here in NIV

I will bring against Elam the four winds
from the four quarters of heaven;
I will scatter them to the four winds,
and there will not be a nation
where Elam’s exiles do not go.

We see that the 4 winds from the 4 quarters are equivalent to 4 winds where there are no nations that Elam's exiles do not go.

That verse suggests a coalition of nations will come against Elam (the southwestern shores of Iran going up into the eastern side of Iraq from the Tigris river bank up into the spine of the Zagros mountains which are the eastern border of ancient Elam.)


and then Jeremiah 49: 37
I will shatter Elam before their foes,
before those who want to kill them;
I will bring disaster on them,
even my fierce anger,”
declares the Lord.
“I will pursue them with the sword
until I have made an end of them.

and the word foes is plural as it's translated. It is either foes or enemies, plural in every English translation in Bible Gateway when I checked. I'm going to assume the translators are correct and it's a multiple as the verse above suggests with the 4 winds, 4 quarters of heaven and nations.


Bill Salus in his book Nuclear Showdown In Iran, and later talks holds to this.

So what I expect to happen IF THIS IS A PROPHECY FOR OUR TIME PERIOD (and I think it is)

We should see a growing coalition of nations who want to deal with Iran and stop her nuclear missile threats.

There's also the possibility that Israel held back because it's not God's timing yet for the prophecies to be fulfilled?
But like everything else going on that appears to be increasing birth pangs, it's obviously foundations being laid for those prophecies, and God is showing "Watchmen on the Wall" signs that they are coming and are near.
That's why Jesus said to "watch" for His coming and events are adding up and pointing to His soon return.
