Iran Declares 'Full-Scale War' with US, Israel, Europe Ahead of Trump-Netanyahu Talks

  • Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated Iran is in a "full-scale war" with the US, Israel, and European powers.
  • Pezeshkian claimed Western pressure is more severe than the 1980s Iran-Iraq war, citing economic sanctions and social challenges.
  • The declaration comes before Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu's meeting with US President Donald Trump to discuss regional security, including Iran.
  • Iran's stance hardened after US and Israeli strikes on its nuclear facilities in June, which reportedly killed 1,100 people.
  • Trump has revived his "maximum pressure" campaign against Iran, imposing fresh sanctions to curb oil exports.

Why It Matters: Iran declares "full-scale war" with Western powers amid escalating tensions and upcoming US-Israel talks.
