Numbers 24:24 – And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever.
In the days of Daniel’s fourth Beast, which was the Roman Kingdom, as well as in the Grecian and Persian Kingdoms before it, the Middle East waters were filled with ships of many nations.
They will be more numerous and deadly than in the days of the 5th and 6th Beast.
Daniel 11:40,41 – And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and WITH MANY SHIPS: and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. [41] He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown:
Begin Excerpt from DEBKAfile Exclusive Report
Iranian warships coming to Mediterranean and Red Seas
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report
January 23, 2011 PM (GMT+02:00)
Less than 24 hours after the breakdown of its nuclear dialogue with the six world powers in Istanbul, Iran announced plans Sunday, Jan.
23, to send a fleet of warships, including a home-made destroyer, on operational and intelligence-gathering missions to the Red Sea and on to the Mediterranean through the Suez Canal. DEBKAfile’s military sources: Parts of the fleet will in fact be deployed in the three waters around Israel’s southern and western shores.
Tehran is taking advantage of the lack of military and diplomatic momentum on the part of US and Israel for a naval thrust to expand its range of operations and encroach on their areas of control.
It is also a rapid response to the arrival of the USS Enterprise carrier with a strike group carrying 6,000 sailors and marines and 80 warplanes in the Mediterranean at the end of last week on its way to the Arabian Sea opposite Iran.
British ex-Prime Minister Tony Blair’s call on the West to stop apologizing and react to Iran with force was not lost on the rulers of the Islamic Republic.
The Navy Commander, Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari spoke of three or four vessels including Iran’s first home-made destroyer, Jamaran, with back-up operational units standing by for urgent support missions.
His deputy, Rear-Admiral Gholam Reza Bi-Gham said
the deployment would last about a year and at some future time, long-distance submarines would join the fleet.
Since Nov. 2008, the Iranian Navy has been conducting anti-piracy patrols between the Gulf of Aden Straits of Bab al-Mandeb off Yemen so some of its units are not far away.
Both admirals reported that a flotilla of Iranian naval officer cadets would soon be dispatched to the Mediterranean and Red Seas to gain experience in these new areas and gather intelligence.
Iran recently purchased three Kilo class submarines from Russia and is using them in the Persian Gulf. DEBKAfile’s military sources report they belong to a bygone generation of subs and lack advanced electronic systems, making it hard for them to stay deep down underwater for long periods without surfacing.
For two years, Iranian military shipyards have been building miniature submarines, war ships and fast assault craft. Most Western naval give them low ratings in performance especially in view of their outdated electronics.
DEBKAfile’s military sources, however, estimate that if deployed in support of the warships assigned to the Mediterranean and Red Seas, those mini-submarines and assault craft could be extremely troublesome and give plenty of headaches to American, Israel and Egyptian naval commanders.

08/14/2011 11:26
AMMAN – Syrian navy ships shelled two densely populated residential districts in the country’s main Mediterranean port city Latakia on Sunday, residents and rights campaigners said, in the second day of a military assault to crush protests.
“I can see the silhouettes of two grey vessels.
They are firing their guns and the impact is landing on al-Raml al-Filistini and al-Shaab neighborhoods,” one witness told Reuters by phone from Latakia, where tanks and armoured vehicles deployed three months ago to crush dissent against President Bashar Assad.
Residents said at least four people were killed in the two districts from tank fire on Sunday morning, bringing the total killed since the beginning of the assault on Saturday to six. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said six civilians were killed on Sunday.

Syrian Warships Shell Latakia
Borzou Daragahi and Roula Hajjar,
Syrian forces used gunboats and tanks in Latakia on Sunday. At least 25 people were killed and an estimated 100 wounded said activists, who added that the attacks appeared to be a response to the large protests in the city Friday. Activists charged that Syrian security officials were shooting people in the streets of the Ramleh neighborhood, where many Palestinians reside. “Entire buildings are being shelled with heavy artillery. The bodies stay on the streets because we are unable to leave our home and get them,” said Abu Yousef, a local resident.

Syrians Are Shot Exiting Mosques; Clinton: Stop Buying Syrian Oil – Nour Malas
Syria’s security forces opened fire on protesters leaving mosques in the suburbs of Damascus and in other major cities on Friday.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Friday called on countries to stop buying Syrian oil. “We urge those countries still buying Syrian oil and gas, those
countries still sending Assad weapons, those countries whose political and economic support give him comfort in his brutality, to get on the right side of history. President Assad has lost the legitimacy to lead, and it is clear that Syria would be better off without him,” she said. (Wall Street Journal)

Turkey Gives “Ultimatum” to Damascus
Murat Yetkin
A Turkish official told Hurriyet on Friday that a letter from Turkish President Gul to Syrian President Assad delivered by Turkish Foreign Minister Davutoglu on Tuesday was considered by Ankara as an “ultimatum” to Damascus that, if violence by Syrian troops continued, Assad would no longer be able to rely on Turkey’s friendship. “If a regime is not listening to the advice of its friend and neighbor and continues opening fire on its own people, that regime can no longer be Turkey’s friend,” the source said.
