A Middle East Stabilizing event, this is conducive to Bible Prophecy.
The Times of Israel reports.
Israel launched its long-awaited retaliatory strike against Iran early this morning, weeks after the Islamic Republic’s massive ballistic missile barrage on the country, with the military saying the “precise strikes” by the Israeli Air Force targeted strategic military sites, specifically drone and ballistic missile manufacturing and launch sites, as well as air defense batteries.

After overnight strikes, IDF warns Iran not to ‘make mistake’ of further escalating.
Iran resumes flights after brief suspension, State media in Tehran downplays strikes, Israel reportedly sent message to Iran via third parties before attack not to hit back.
Iranian media downplays Israeli strikes, says reports of 100 jets taking part in attack ‘complete lies’
Iran appears to be downplaying Israel’s overnight strikes, with a source quoted by state media denying the IDF’s announcement that dozens of fighter jets took part in the retaliatory attack.
The source says that the strike was designed to minimize casualties and to prevent an escalation between Israel and Iran.
Iran confirmed the attack had targeted military sites in the capital Tehran and other parts of the country, but said it had caused “limited damage” and that air defense systems had successfully countered much of the attacks, an assertion dismissed in Israel.
This last statement by Iran is a strong indication Iran won’t retaliate.
