This represents the first time a major South American nation has weaponized energy exports against Israel, creating an unprecedented economic alliance pattern. The timing - coming after ignored warnings from August 2024 - demonstrates a new willingness of traditionally neutral Latin American countries to take concrete economic actions against Israel, expanding the geographic scope of anti-Israel coalitions beyond the Middle East and Europe.

📰 What Happened
Colombian President has announced an immediate suspension of coal exports to Israel, citing unheeded demands from August 2024 regarding the Gaza conflict. This marks the first time a Latin American nation has imposed energy-related sanctions on Israel over the Gaza situation. The decision represents a significant shift in Colombia-Israel relations and adds to growing international pressure against Israel's military operations.
📖 Prophetic Significance
Colombia's coal export ban signals a prophetic realignment where nations 'from the uttermost parts of the earth' (Jeremiah 6:22) begin economic warfare against Israel. The timing of this action in 2025, following ignored demands from 2024, aligns with Zechariah 14:2's description of all nations gathering against Jerusalem. Significantly, this represents the first time a major Latin American commodity exporter has joined the economic pressure campaign, suggesting the prophesied global coalition is expanding beyond traditional Middle Eastern and European opponents to include the Americas - a key milestone in forming the comprehensive anti-Israel alliance described in Zechariah 12:3.
