As the U.S. and Israel intensify strikes against Iran, President Trump pushes for an international coalition to secure the Strait of Hormuz, aiming to protect global shipping and stabilize oil markets. With Iran’s missile, air, and naval capabilities heavily degraded, both nations say they are setting the stage for potential regime change.

On the ground, Israel expands operations into southern Lebanon to counter Hezbollah, while continuing to confront AI‑driven misinformation fueling confusion online. Experts warn that failure to change Iran’s regime could trigger a mass refugee crisis across Europe.

In this episode, we also look at the Israeli economy, where high‑tech innovation and billion‑dollar acquisitions continue despite the war. Venture leader Judah Taub explains why Israel’s economy remains resilient and shares insights on global oil volatility.

The human toll of the conflict is felt deeply in Beit Shemesh, where an Iranian missile strike killed nine people, including children, and devastated a synagogue. We hear from grieving families, community leaders, and emergency responders who describe sorrow, faith, and unity in the aftermath.

Plus, an American visitor in Jerusalem shares her first‑hand experience living under missile alerts, and how faith communities are supporting one another during the crisis.
Finally, we spotlight CBN Israel’s emergency relief efforts, delivering food, essential supplies, and trauma support to families whose homes were destroyed by missile impacts—like Yuri and Olga in Beersheva.

Continue praying for Israel, Lebanon, Iran, and the entire Middle East—and for wisdom for world leaders as this conflict unfolds.
