IDF commandos, intelligence personnel, and Mossad operatives were reportedly deployed to Azerbaijan during Operation Roaring Lion, providing a forward position near Iran's border, sources told CNN.
This deployment of Israeli military and intelligence assets to Azerbaijan positions Israel near Iran's border during heightened tensions. While not a full Gog/Magog coalition invasion, it reflects the geopolitical realignment and military positioning of nations near Israel that precedes the prophesied invasion described in Ezekiel 38-39, where Persia (Iran) is explicitly named as part of the anti-Israel coalition.
