Iran has launched an unprecedented attack against Israel, firing a barrage of missiles at the country in the latest escalation amid weeks of soaring violence and tensions in the region.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said on Tuesday that it fired missiles at Israel in response to deadly Israeli attacks against people in Gaza and Lebanon, as well as the assassinations of top IRGC, Hamas and Hezbollah leaders.
Alarms sounded in Israel on Tuesday evening as the missiles fell on major cities and towns.
If only world leaders listen to prophetic warnings, Primate Elijah Ayodele of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church had warned in October, over one year ago that there will be an escalation in the ongoing Israel war with terrorists in Gaza.
He called on the world to pray against escalation
“What Is going on in Israel, Gaza, Palestine, let’s pray that it won’t escalate, let’s pray’’.
The ongoing crisis which has turned to a full blown war between Israel and Iran is the escalation that Primate Ayodele warned about. The two countries have always fought themselves by proxy, it has never been this obvious but the firing of missiles into Israel by Iran is certainly the biggest escalation in the region.
Moreso, it appears the world is yet to see the result of Iran’s action towards Israel following responses from parties after the missile attack.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened a meeting with Israel’s security chiefs at the IDF headquarters in Tel Aviv Wednesday, his office said in a statement.
Netanyahu declared after the attack that “Iran made a big mistake tonight, and it will pay for it,” vowing, “whoever attacks us — we will attack them.”
According to reports, Israel may respond to Iran’s major Tuesday ballistic missile attack by striking strategic infrastructure, such as gas or oil rigs, or by directly targeting Iran’s nuclear sites, media reports said on Wednesday, citing Israeli officials.
Considering all of these, more escalations are still expected and just as Primate Ayodele warned, it will get deadlier.
