Zechariah 12:3 “ And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it.

Important Takeaways:

  • Iran unveils new missile said to put Israel, US regional bases within range
  • Manufactured entirely domestically, solid fuel-powered ‘Khaibar-Shekan’ reportedly able to reach 1,450 kilometers (900miles) with great accuracy
  • It is called the Khaibar-buster, a reference to a Jewish castle overrun by Muslim warriors in the early days of Islam.
  • Israel’s closest point to Iran is some 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) away.
  • Earlier in January Iran tested an engine for a solid-fuel rocket designed to launch satellites. Satellite carriers usually use liquid fuel but solid-fuel rockets can be adapted for mobile launchers that can be driven anywhere on a major road or rail system. Pure solid-fuel rockets are mostly associated with ballistic missiles systems.
