This marks the first time Israel and the US have conducted joint overt military strikes against Iran's nuclear infrastructure, rather than covert sabotage or assassinations. The unprecedented targeting of three major facilities simultaneously - including the heavily fortified underground Fordow site - demonstrates a new phase in Middle East nuclear confrontation.
Israel-Iran Nuclear Strikes: 12-Day Campaign Targets 3 Key Facilities
📰 What Happened
Israel and the US have conducted a 12-day military campaign targeting three of Iran's primary nuclear facilities. The coordinated strikes focused on the main uranium enrichment facility at Natanz, the fortified Fordow facility, and the uranium research compound at Isfahan. The operation represents a significant escalation in efforts to curtail Iran's nuclear program, with experts now debating the extent of damage to these critical installations.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The joint Israel-US operation against Iran aligns with prophetic expectations of regional alliances confronting a Persian power (Ezekiel 38). The targeting of three specific nuclear sites - Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan - mirrors the biblical pattern of power concentrations being dismantled through precise divine timing. The 12-day duration echoes prophetic numbers of governmental perfection. This operation reshapes Middle East power dynamics, potentially accelerating the prophesied northern confederation's motivation to move against Israel, while demonstrating the growing military cooperation between Israel and Western allies that prophecy indicates will be temporary.
