Iran, Syria, Russia and China are planning the “biggest-ever war games in the Middle East,” according to a report on the Fars Iranian news site. However, a Syrian official denied the claims.
According to the article, the four countries are preparing 90,000 troops, 400 aircraft and 1,000 tanks for the massive joint maneuvers, which are to take place along the Syrian coast within a month.
The report states that Russian “atomic submarines and warships, aircraft carriers and mine-clearing destroyers as well as Iranian battleships and submarines will also arrive in Syria” and that Egypt has agreed to let 12 Chinese warships cross the Suez Canal for the exercises.
To Biblical scholars, Christians and Jews, this will be a fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy stated in Ezekiel 38. – It says that Russia (Gog), Iran (Persia), Syria and China (Gomer), “in the last days” will gather together their armies to attack and destroy Israel. — http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ezekiel+38&version=NIV
