The Hezbollah terrorist organization launched a barrage of approximately 100 rockets at multiple areas in Israel on the evening of Wednesday, March 11, 2026. The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit confirmed the attack shortly after 8:20 p.m., stating that the Israeli Air Force was intercepting projectiles while simultaneously striking ready-to-launch launchers and additional Hezbollah infrastructure across Lebanon. The public was urged to follow Home Front Command defensive guidelines, and the IDF vowed it would not tolerate any harm to Israeli civilians.

Multiple impact sites were confirmed across several areas of northern Israel. Magen David Adom reported that a man in his 50s sustained light injuries when a flying object struck his hand, and two additional people were lightly injured at another location. Three fire crews responded to a direct hit on the roof of a one-story private house in the central Galilee, where firefighters cut off power sources and searched the building for anyone trapped inside.

Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the barrage, announcing it had launched an operation titled “Al-ʿAsf al-Maʾkul.” Earlier that evening, Mateh Asher Regional Council chairman Moshe Davidovich had issued an urgent call for residents to stay close to protected areas and reduce non-essential activities, citing accumulating alerts from security sources. In many communities, extracurricular activities, gatherings, and social events were canceled for the evening.

“Dear Lord, we lift up the residents of northern Israel and all those living along the confrontation lines. We pray in Yeshua’s Name that You shield every family, every home, and every community from the rockets and missiles of the enemy. Strengthen the hands of Israel’s defense forces and grant them wisdom, alertness, and precision as they protect the nation. We ask that You bring comfort and healing to those who were injured and calm the hearts of all who are shaken by fear. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard the hearts and minds of Your people, and may You frustrate every plan of the enemy against the land You have given to Israel.”

President Isaac Herzog visited the Israeli Air Force Aerial Defense Array on Israel’s northern border on Tuesday, March 10, 2026. Accompanied by the IAF Commander of the Aerial Defense Array, Brigadier General K., the President was briefed on the unit’s operational activities in defense of the State of Israel, including its detection and interception capabilities.

During the visit, Herzog praised the service members for their role in a historic campaign. He noted that the aerial defense battery, alongside all forces deployed across the country, intercepts dangerous missiles aimed at harming and killing millions of Israeli citizens. He told the troops that from the very place where they are stationed, change will come across the entire Middle East.

Addressing Hezbollah directly, Herzog issued a stern warning. If Hezbollah so much as thinks of continuing to attack, harass, or threaten Israel, it simply does not understand what awaits it, he said. Israel is determined to dismantle the organization once and for all.

“The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and He helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise Him.” – Psalm 28:7

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a direct message to the people of Iran on Tuesday, March 10, 2026, calling on them to seize what he described as a historic opportunity to overthrow the ruling regime and gain their freedom. Netanyahu stated that Israel, together with the United States, is intensifying strikes against Iranian regime targets harder than ever before.

Netanyahu detailed the scope of the military campaign, saying Israeli forces have struck countless regime targets, taken out thousands of IRGC personnel, and destroyed hundreds of their missile launchers. He emphasized that the campaign is directed at the regime rather than the Iranian population, calling Israel the Iranian people’s “best ally” and expressing full respect for their sovereignty, culture, and heritage.

The Prime Minister urged Iranians to prepare for action, saying that in the coming days, Israel will create the conditions for them to grasp their destiny. He warned that the regime’s leadership is fleeing but has nowhere to hide. Netanyahu concluded by telling Iranians their dreams will become a reality and that the time to seize the moment is fast approaching.

“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, because the LORD has anointed Me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound.” – Isaiah 61:1

Even after 70 years of service, the B-52 Stratofortress remains one of America’s deadliest weapons and has participated in nearly every US conflict since the Vietnam War. Three B-52 bombers arrived at the United Kingdom’s RAF Fairford base on Monday, March 9, 2026, as part of the ongoing US military operations against Iran in the Middle East.

The B-52s are capable of carrying up to 70,000 pounds of ordnance, including nuclear weapons, cruise missiles, and heavy bombs. The bombers can also deliver the 30,000-pound Massive Ordnance Penetrator bunker-buster bomb, designed to penetrate deep underground and destroy subterranean facilities operated by Iran’s current regime. Along with the B-2 Spirit, the B-52 serves as a key component of America’s Nuclear Triad.

The B-52 rose to prominence during the Vietnam War in Operation Linebacker II, where the aircraft dropped more than 15,000 tons of bombs. More than 740 B-52s were built in total, with 58 currently in active service. On March 3, 2026, US Central Command confirmed that a B-52 bomber force was deployed during the Iran conflict to strike ballistic missile sites and command-and-control posts.

Discover the profound beauty of 'Lecha Dodi,' a cherished Jewish tradition that invites us to embrace the sanctity of Shabbat. The refrain, 'Let us go, my beloved, to greet the bride/the Sabbath presence, let us welcome,' echoes the heartfelt request of Israel's 'beloved' (God) to unite in welcoming the 'bride' (the Sabbath). This poetic composition, originating in the 16th century by Shlomo Halevi Alkabetz, draws inspiration from the Song of Songs and the Prophets, symbolizing the relationship between the Jewish people and God. Join us on a journey that culminates in a powerful call for Messianic deliverance and the celebration of the great Shabbat.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted a message to the people of Iran on Tuesday, March 11, 2026, implying that conditions for a revolution against the regime would soon be met. Netanyahu told Iranians their dreams will become a reality and that when the time is right, Israel will pass the torch to them. He urged the Iranian people to be ready to seize the moment.

The message came amid US skepticism about the possibility of Iranian regime change despite the assassination of former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was replaced on Monday, March 10, by his son Mojtaba Khamenei. US President Donald Trump appeared to suggest the US operation could end before regime change occurs, telling CBS News that the war is “very much complete” and that Iran has lost its navy, communications, and air force.

Trump continued to threaten the Iranian regime, warning Tehran against stopping the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, Israeli and US strikes continue to target the Islamic regime, with Israeli officials confirming on Saturday, March 8, that the IRGC’s Quds Force headquarters had been destroyed in an airstrike. Some experts in Tehran believe regime collapse may be inevitable given the scale of Iranian military and political losses during the war.

“Heavenly Father, we lift up the people of Iran who have suffered for decades under the tyranny of the Islamic regime. We pray in Yeshua’s Name that You open the doors of freedom for the Iranian people and bring an end to the oppression they have endured. We ask that You guide the leaders of Israel and the United States with wisdom and discernment as they navigate this conflict, and that every action taken would serve Your purposes and protect innocent lives. We pray for a new day in Iran—one marked by liberty, justice, and the knowledge of Your Name.”

Mojtaba Khamenei, who was abruptly elevated to the position of Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic following eight days of deliberation among regime factions including the IRGC, controls a vast financial empire worth at least $3 billion spread across London, the UAE, and several European countries. None of these assets appear in his name on official ownership documents. Khamenei uses these properties to facilitate money laundering and to finance institutions under his control.

Iranian businessman Ali Ansari serves as Mojtaba Khamenei’s financial agent for property acquisitions and investments. Ansari built his operation by exploiting state-linked privileges in industry and trade, then expanded into Britain, Switzerland, the UAE, Malaysia, and other countries using offshore shell companies. He has played a significant role in circumventing sanctions, laundering money for the IRGC and the regime, and financing the IRGC and its proxy groups, particularly Hezbollah.

Through affiliated companies, Ansari purchased luxury London properties valued at over £150 million, including a complex on Bishops Avenue in Hampstead for £73 million and apartments near Kensington Palace totaling approximately £35.7 million. Several months ago, British authorities froze Ansari’s London assets on grounds of financing the IRGC. One of Khamenei’s London properties is located only a few meters from the Israeli Embassy, in one of the most heavily guarded areas of the British capital.

“For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light.” – Luke 8:17

The Spanish government officially withdrew its ambassador to Israel, as announced in Spain’s official government journal on Wednesday, March 11, 2026. The decree to dismiss Ana María Salomón Pérez from her ambassadorial post was made by the Council of Ministers on Tuesday, March 10, and signed by King Felipe VI and Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares.

Pérez had already been recalled from Tel Aviv on September 9, 2025, for consultations, hours after Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar accused the Spanish government of antisemitism over its measures against Israel-bound ships and aircraft during the war in Gaza. She never returned, and the embassy has since been led by a chargé d’affaires. The dismissal is considered politically and symbolically motivated rather than a reflection of her professional performance.

In May 2024, Prime Minister Netanyahu recalled Israel’s ambassadors to Ireland, Spain, and Norway in protest over those countries’ unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state. Both Israel’s embassy in Spain and Spain’s embassy in Israel will now be led by chargés d’affaires. Spain’s Foreign Minister stated that the Spanish embassy in Israel will remain open to assist with evacuation operations for Spanish citizens in the region.

“Lord God, we pray for the nations that have turned against Israel and severed their diplomatic ties. We ask in Yeshua’s Name that You soften the hearts of leaders in Spain and throughout Europe, and remind them of Your covenant with the people of Israel. We pray that You open the eyes of those who have been deceived by false narratives and replace hostility with understanding. We ask that You raise up righteous voices in every nation that will stand with Israel and speak the truth. Bless those who bless Israel, and may Your will be done among the nations of the earth.”

Google agreed to acquire Israeli cloud security start-up Wiz for $32 billion, making it the largest acquisition in both Google’s and Israel’s history and the fourth-largest tech deal of all time. The deal marks a defining moment for the global cybersecurity industry, a testament to Israel’s enduring tech prowess, and a significant vote of confidence in a country facing ongoing regional conflict.

That a start-up founded in 2020 could reach this valuation in under five years is remarkable, particularly amid escalating global calls to boycott or isolate Israel. Founded by former Microsoft Israel R&D heads, Wiz has grown into the most valuable cloud security company on the planet in record time. Its tools are now used by over 40% of the Fortune 100 companies.

This acquisition is far from Google’s first foray into Israeli tech. In 2013, Google bought navigation app Waze for $1.1 billion, and the tech giant has since built a massive R&D presence in Israel, employing over 2,000 engineers focused on AI, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, and core search functions. Israel is now the only country outside the United States where Google conducts full-scale product development.
