Syrian news outlets report that Israel allegedly struck Latakia port for the second time this month. The strike targeted the container yard of the port, but no casualties were reported. The Latakia port is an area where Russian military forces are located, with a Russian air base located there. While Israel has not confirmed it carried out the strike, it is safe to say that tensions between Israel and any Iranian-backed militia are quite high. As Iran inches closer to obtaining a nuclear weapon, Israel is ramping up preemptive strikes on Iranian targets in the region. Please pray for safety of Israeli civilians in these times. Please also pray for wisdom for Israeli officials as they confront the growing Iranian threat. Lastly, please pray for a diplomatic miracle with Iran, and that we will avoid an all-out war with them.
