Update (Day 930) Swords of Iron-Lion’s Roar “The Squeeze”

It’s interesting to think that one wrong move this way or that way can cost your life. That’s the level of vigilance required when serving in the army, especially over a long period. You have to remember that the lives of your friends are in your hands. Be alert. Be awake. Be ready.

IDF soldiers recently intercepted and identified a Radwan Force terrorist planning an imminent attack. He was captured in southern Lebanon and transferred to Unit 503 for further questioning. These terrorists will take any opportunity to try to harm our people—but we won’t allow it.

That’s also the message the U.S. is sending Iran. They’ve effectively tightened control over the Strait of Hormuz, they’ve got the clamp on them, they’re locked in and locked down. People are asking what Iran can still do. The answer is: never underestimate your enemy. Even after setbacks, some estimates say about 40% of their attack drones remain, around 60% of their missile launchers, and possibly even up to 70% of their missile stockpile.

Trump has reportedly ordered strikes against their smaller naval vessels—especially those laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz—saying to destroy them without hesitation, even after many larger ships have already been eliminated.

Here in the north, we remain vigilant. A tunnel was just uncovered inside a clothing store in southern Lebanon—25 meters deep. That’s the reality: things aren’t always what they seem. I remember in Gaza finding a tunnel entrance hidden beneath a kitchen sink. You always have to be aware.

There was also a cross-border operation deep into the village of Dabin, about 12 kilometers inside Lebanon, targeting a Hezbollah military site. Troops from the Tzabar Battalion of the Givati Brigade engaged in intense close-range combat. More than 20 Hezbollah terrorists were eliminated, both in direct fighting and through air support, and the site was destroyed.

Many operations like this never make the news, but they’re happening constantly.

As for what comes next, the U.S. has reportedly seized an Iranian oil tanker, the Majestic X, and pressure is continuing. We’re not backing down.

They may think they will win—but they won’t. The Lion of Judah will prevail. Zechariah 12 speaks of this land becoming a focal point for the world. We’re not going anywhere.
