Update (Day 968) Swords of Iron “More Barrages‼️”

As barrages of rockets rain down on this Land from Hezbollah—30 just now, with one hitting a commercial center in Kiryat Shmona—I want you to imagine this happening in your town.

Wherever you hail from, what would you do if rockets and drones were falling near your home, your family, your children? Please write in the comments where you’re watching from. I know I’ve asked this before, but it matters:

What would you do?

We do what we must do to protect our families. That means continuing to advance into Lebanon to stop the threat at its source.

And it’s not only the north. There was a car-ramming attack in Gush Etzion, with four people killed and others injured. The terror continues on multiple fronts.

This is also my message to President Trump: Don’t quit.

Don’t stop halfway. Continue to the end—until there is a new future, a new reality, not only for Israel, but for America, the Middle East, and the free world. 

It was powerful to see Beaufort Ridge under IDF control. Golani reconnaissance troops captured that beautiful ridge, and seeing Hezbollah pushed back from such a strategic position is truly beautiful.

Where we are, it can be dangerous, and we thank you for your prayers. We really do. When rockets strike places like Beit Hillel where a close friend lives and people are injured, it reminds us how serious this moment is.

Across the region, things remain intense. Reports say a Chinese missile used by Iran shot down a U.S. plane. Even during this so-called ceasefire, the fighting continues. Interesting kind of ceasefire, right?

In the north, schools are closed. Communities are staying close to bomb shelters. Gatherings are limited. Families are waiting, watching, and wondering what comes next. We are on the knife’s edge, at a tipping point, and we must see this through.

But there will be a solution. Israel will find answers to the drone threat, and we will continue defending our people.

Isaiah 41 gives me strength: “Fear not, I will help you,” says the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. “I will make you a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth. You shall thresh the mountains and beat them small… You shall rejoice in the Lord.”

That is the promise we hold onto.

Fear not. Stand strong. Victory is coming.
