Donald Trump claims Iran is ‘completely collapsing’ amid new sanctions

U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Truth Social that Iran is ‘completely collapsing’ ahead of the announcement of new American sanctions against Tehran. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has characterized the upcoming measures as an ‘economic D-Day,’ describing it as the largest financial attack ever organized against an opponent. The sanctions aim to target not only Iran but also any country or business that maintains economic and commercial ties with the nation.

In a related diplomatic development, Pakistani Army Chief General Asim Munir is traveling to Tehran to discuss regional security and peace. Reports indicate that President Trump held a phone call with General Munir last week, reportedly at the President's initiative, seeking to use Pakistan's influence to bring Iran back to the negotiating table. General Munir is expected to meet with individuals close to Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei.
