Iran has issued a formal warning of full-scale retaliation as US military deployments in the Middle East intensify. Tehran’s leadership has placed defense forces on heightened alert, preparing for the possibility of extreme scenarios. A senior Iranian official declared that any attack whether “limited”, “surgical” or “kinetic”, would be treated as an all-out war, and the response would be unprecedented and severe. This statement comes amid rising regional tensions following US-backed Israeli operations in June. In response, the United States has moved major naval assets, including the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln with escorting destroyers, signaling a strategic posture of deterrence. President Trump confirmed the deployment, stating the fleet is positioned “just in case”, leaving the door open for potential military action if Iran escalates. WATCH

The fallout escalated after Trump announced the withdrawal through a post on Truth Social, framing the decision as a reassessment of U.S. commitments to allies. The move effectively ended Canada’s participation in the high-profile initiative, with Ottawa declining to bear any costs linked to the now-collapsed invitation. WATCH
