Rockets continue to cause damage in Israel and Gaza, and some have now come from Lebanon:

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — A strike launched from Gaza on Tuesday killed two Thai workers inside a packaging plant in southern Israel, police said, as Israel and Gaza’s Hamas rulers continued to trade attacks throughout the day.
The Magen David Adom rescue service said it transported another seven wounded people to the hospital after the projectile attack Tuesday afternoon in southern Israel. It came as Palestinians across Israel and the occupied territories went on strike in a rare collective action against Israel’s policies.
With the war in Gaza showing no sign of abating and truce efforts apparently stalled, the general strike and expected protests could again widen the conflict after a spasm of communal violence in Israel and protests across the occupied West Bank last week.
Israel’s airstrikes toppled a six-story building that housed bookstores and educational centers used by the Islamic University and other colleges, leaving behind a massive mound of rebar and concrete slabs. Desks, office chairs, books and computer wires could be seen in the debris. Residents sifted through the rubble, searching for their belongings. https://apnews.com/article/hamas-gaza-middle-east-israel-israel-palestinian-conflict-ab0bfc2b25d2a03756fb0c084fca1a3d

Color Red sirens went off in northern Israel late Monday at around 11 PM as six Grad-type rockets were fired from Lebanon. The rockets fell short, landing inside Lebanon. The IDF responded by shelling the area from which the rockets were launched. … Three missiles were fired at Israel from Syria on Friday evening. One rocket fell inside Syria the other two landed in open areas of the Golan Heights. https://www.israel365news.com/190869/lebanon-fires-missiles-at-israel-opening-war-against-jerusalem-on-two-fronts/
Those rockets from Lebanon would have been fired by supporters of Hezbollah, which is supported by Iran. Many of the rockets fired from Gaza were directly or indirectly supplied by Iran.
Notice something I posted here last week:
If the situation continues to escalate and Hezbollah, Syria, and/or Iran get heavily involved we may see the regional conflict that will result in the prophesied “great damage” coming to Jerusalem (Isaiah 22:6-8) and/or the coming elimination of Damascus, capital of Syria, being a city (cf. Isaiah 17:1). (Thiel B. AP: Escalating Mideast violence bears hallmarks of 2014 Gaza war; BBC: Civil war? COGwriter.com, May 12, 2021)
We may be getting closer to that time.
A reader sent me a link to the following related to the situation and Turkey’s President:
May 17, 2021
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan urges Pope Francis to help rally the world to adopt sanctions against Israel for its “massacre” of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. …
He told the pope on Monday that “all of humanity should be united against” Israel, his office says. …
The Turkish push for sanctions against Israel included a phone call on Monday between Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu and his British counterpart Dominic Raab.
Cavusoglu told Raab it was “essential that the international community should give a stronger reaction” to Israel’s aggression, a Turkish foreign ministry source says. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/urging-sanctions-erdogan-tells-pope-all-of-humanity-should-be-united-against-israel/
Notice that a Muslim leader called the head of the Roman Catholic Church wanting unity. While interfaith unity was not the intent of the call, in a sense that is what Recep Tayyip Erdogan asked for in this matter.
And the time will come when much of Islam will, temporarily, support the coming European Beast power.
That will come no later than 3 1/2 years after the deal of Daniel 9:27 is confirmed by a European ‘prince (see the article The ‘Peace Deal’ of Daniel 9:27).
US President Biden said he supported a cease fire, but the deal in Daniel 9:27 is a bit more than that.
Since major peace deals tend to come after major conflict, should the situation escalate further in the Middle East, we could be getting closer for such a biblical deal to be proposed.
Jesus said to “Watch” (Mark 13) and this certainly looks like a time to do so.

Church of God on Jerusalem’s Western Hill Could this building, often referred to as the Cenacle, which is located on a Mount Zion, possibly have been the oldest actual Christian church building?
Does the ‘Cenacle’ deal have prophetic ramifications? After a 20 year negotiation, the Church of Rome has negotiated the right to have Catholic mass in the building known as the Cenacle. It is in the area where the Church of God on Jerusalem’s Western Hill once stood. This is believed to be the location of the earliest Christian church building. How does the Bible define the ‘temple of God’ in the New Testament? Could this be the area where the ‘man of sin’ will sit in the “temple of God’ that Bible prophecy discusses in 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4? This is a YouTube video.
