Israel Reportedly Fires Missiles From The Golan, Striking Hezbollah & Iranian Targets Near Damascus

Explosions were heard Monday night over the city of Damascus, where Israel reportedly fired missiles from the Golan Heights toward targets south of the Syrian capital. 

The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) alledged that Syria’s air defenses confronted “Israeli missile aggression that targeted some sites [in] Damascus[‘s] southern countryside,” which the Israeli Defence Forces have not confirmed.  

Syrian media further claimed that its defenses “downed most of the hostile missiles,” a declaration frequently made following Israeli strikes in the region. Although, as clarified by the Times of Israel, that assertion is overwhelmingly dismissed by “Israeli military officials and civilian defense analysts” as “empty boasts.”

The multiple airstrikes reportedly struck targets south of the city in al-Kiswah and near the Damascus international airport, regions previously targeted by Israel to disrupt Iranian military bases.

Amir Tsarfati, Founder and President of Behold Israel, reported that Monday night’s Israeli strike was on “Hezbollah And Iranian targets near Damascus.”

“Blasts are heard all around,” Tsarfati, who served as the deputy governor of Jericho, stated. “The Israeli strike was with surface to surface missiles—not by fighter jets—launched from the Golan Heights. All enemy targets were hit.”

Israel has carried out numerous strikes in the region of Damascus and elsewhere, working to prevent the transfer of weapons and an Iranian foothold in the Syrian country, which borders the Jewish State to the north.

The urgency to prevent an Iranian presence in the region has only been heightened as the Islamic Republic, which is brazenly vocal in its desire to obliterate Israel, inches closer to obtaining a nuclear weapon.

Although many may simply view Israeli strikes in Syria as a regular occurrence in the region, Christians take particular notice when discussing military actions in the country’s capital. That is because Damascus, which is the longest continually inhabited city in the world, has its future end detailed in Scripture. 

Jack Hibbs, the senior pastor of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, during the last Israel strike near Damascus on May 21st, explained the city’s Biblical significance. 

“For those of us who know our Bibles, it’s always an attention-getter whenever we hear about Damascus being involved in any form of warfare,” Hibbs described. “The book of Isaiah chapter 17 tells us that there will be an utter and total devastation that comes to the city of Damascus.”

Isaiah 17:1 reads, “The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.”

“With all that’s going on in the world right now, keep your eye on the news with your Bible open,” Pastor Hibbs underscored. “It may be that such an event will trigger either a regional or world war…”

According to Hibbs and many other Bible Prophecy students, Damascus’s future destruction may also be the catalyst for “the Ezekiel 38 battle” in-which Russia, Iran, Turkey, and others come together from the north, with weaponry supplied by Russia, to attack the Jewish State.
