Despite the ceasefire, hostilities continue in Gaza. The IDF says it killed a terror operative who approached Israeli troops and “posed an immediate threat” in the southern Gaza Strip earlier today.
War is looming again in Lebanon. According to the the truce between Israel and Lebanon that went into effect on Nov. 27, 2024, following an intense two-month campaign by the Israel Defense Forces that led to the decapitation of Hezbollah’s leadership, southern Lebanon must be demilitarized, and the Hezbollah Shi’ite group disarmed. This has not yet happened.
The Trump administration has set Dec. 31 as the deadline for the Lebanese government to disarm Hezbollah, according to diplomatic sources. Failure of the Lebanese government to disarm the Iranian-backed group could give Israel the political legitimacy to launch another military campaign against Hezbollah.
“One year ago today, a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon went into effect. Under that agreement, Hezbollah was supposed to fully disarm and dismantle its terror and military infrastructure. They did neither,” said IDF International Spokesman Lt. Col. Nadav Shoshani on Thursday. “Instead, Hezbollah has spent the year rebuilding and rearming with the backing of the Iranian regime. As long as Hezbollah poses a threat to Israel, we will continue to do whatever is necessary to defend ourselves,” he added.

The Israel Defense Forces struck and dismantled on Thursday Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure in several areas in Southern Lebanon, the military said. Several rocket launching sites were targeted, as well as a storage facility that contained weapons and military posts that were used by Hezbollah terrorists to advance attacks against IDF troops, the army stated.
Meanwhile, in Syria, six Israeli soldiers were wounded, including three seriously, after coming under fire by gunmen during an arrest operation in southern Syria early Friday morning. The operation came as Israel is reportedly preparing for the possibility of attacks from Syria, either from Syrian troops or terror operatives.
Tensions remain high in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank). Two Palestinian terror suspects were shot dead by Border Police officers after surrendering to them in the West Bank city of Jenin on Thursday. The Justice Ministry’s Department for Internal Police Investigations opened a criminal investigation after footage emerged showing one of them appearing to shoot the two suspects after they exited a building with their hands raised. The deceased, identified by Palestinian media as 26-year-old Mahmoud Qassem Abdallah and 37-year-old Youssef Asasa, were wanted by Israel on suspicion of involvement in bombing and shooting attacks against troops.
This week, pray for Israel and the Jewish people. Pray that the Lord will “destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations” (Isaiah 25:7). Pray for the coming of the Prince of Peace, who alone can bring true shalom.

SCRIPTURE FOR THE WEEK:
Psalm 70:1-5
Hasten, O God, to save me; come quickly, Lord, to help me.
2 May those who want to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.
3 May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!” turn back because of their shame.
4 But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; may those who long for your saving help always say, “The Lord is great!”
5 But as for me, I am poor and needy; come quickly to me, O God. You are my help and my deliverer; Lord, do not delay.
