Question about whether or not something falls under prior art

I found a reference that has an EFD earlier than my current application's EFD, but later than its foreign priority date.

However, this reference is a continuation of a PCT application whose date beats the application's foreign priority date (I believe it's claiming domestic benefit). Would this be considered as prior art? I'm not all too familiar with priority dates so any 2 cent would be appreciated.
