[Today’s Prayer] Israel says it has “eliminated the Iranian naval commander who directed the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz” (comprehensive report)

On the 26th (local time), Israel announced that it had carried out an airstrike that eliminated the commander of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy, who had been directing the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.

According to AFP, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said in a statement that “the Israeli military carried out a precise and deadly operation overnight, eliminating Alireza Tangsiri, commander of the IRGC Navy, along with senior naval commanders.”

Minister Katz emphasized that “the individual directly responsible for terrorist operations that blocked ship traffic and laid mines in the Strait of Hormuz has been eliminated by the airstrike.”

Last month on the 28th, the United States, together with Israel, launched “Operation Grand Wrath” against Iran, identifying the destruction of Iran’s naval capabilities as one of its top priorities. Since the start of the conflict, U.S. forces have sunk more than 100 Iranian vessels.

As Iran considers blocking the Strait of Hormuz as a last means of resistance, attention is focused on how Israel’s elimination of Tangsiri will affect the ceasefire negotiations between the United States and Iran, which have only just begun to make progress. Iran has demanded a complete halt to attacks and assassinations by the United States and Israel as one of the conditions for ending the war.

“Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.” (John 17:3)

We hear the news that Israel has eliminated the core leadership of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which had been leading the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, through an airstrike.

Although ceasefire negotiations between the United States and Iran are underway, please have mercy on this land where ongoing clashes and news of death continue to be heard.

Rather than continuing to kill one another and wage war with empty intentions and hopes, grant the grace to know the one true Lord God and Jesus Christ, and to receive eternal life. May God’s rule come upon Iran and Israel, and through the cross of Jesus Christ, bring peace between them.

Especially at this time, hear the prayers of the Iranian church that is praying in tears, and bring about the work of salvation. Let the Iranian church witness the final revival as it serves the people of Israel.

Through Iran and Israel, let all nations come to Jesus, who is eternal life.
