Israel has resumed enforcing the Gaza ceasefire after launching a wave of precision strikes against Hamas in response to repeated violations of the truce. According to the IDF, dozens of terror targets were hit, and more than 30 Hamas commanders were eliminated in coordination with Shin Bet. “In accordance with the directive of the political echelon,” the military said, “the IDF has begun the renewed enforcement of the ceasefire in response to Hamas’s violations.” The strikes reportedly targeted key leadership positions and weapons sites across the Gaza Strip.

This renewed clash underscores the fragile nature of Middle East “peace” and the volatility foretold in Scripture. The cycle of ceasefires and renewed conflict echoes the warning of 1 Thessalonians 5:3: “While they are saying, ‘Peace and safety!’ then destruction will come upon them suddenly.” As Israel acts to defend itself against terror, the world witnesses yet another reminder that true peace in the region will not come through treaties or political accords, but only through the return of the Prince of Peace—Jesus Christ.
