CBN NewsJERUSALEM, Israel – Sirens blared early Monday morning in Tel Aviv and throughout central Israel, including Jerusalem, as Iran and one of its proxies, the Houthis in Yemen, fired a number of ballistic missiles.
The fighting is interconnected. Hezbollah’s persistent firing of missiles and drones from southern Lebanon into northern Israel prompted the Israeli military to target Hezbollah’s stronghold in Beirut. Tehran then claimed it was justified in firing on Israel itself.
President Trump is eager to keep negotiations going and told Fox News, “What I would suggest to Iran: you’ve shot your missiles, that’s enough. Get back to the table and make a deal.” He reportedly spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the phone, asking him not to respond to the Iranian attack, later posting, “Israel and Iran must immediately stop ‘shooting.'”
