Trump in unusual warning: Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!

US President Donald Trump issued an unusual warning on his Truth Social platform on Monday, calling for the evacuation of Tehran.

“Iran should have signed the ‘deal’ I told them to sign. What a shame, and waste of human life. Simply stated, IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON. I said it over and over again! Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!” he wrote.

In a subsequent post, Trump wrote, “AMERICA FIRST means many GREAT things, including the fact that, IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”

A few minutes after Trump’s initial warning, there were reports in Iran of explosions and heavy anti-aircraft fire in Tehran. Additional strikes were reported at other locations in Iran, including Natanz.

A White House official explained to CNN that Trump’s social media post “reflected the urgency of the need for Iran to come to the table.

The official said that Trump has been receiving regular updates from Secretary of State Marco Rubio and other officials throughout the day while in Canada for the G7 summit.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Trump would leave the summit early in wake of the tensions between Israel and Iran.

“President Trump had a great day at the G7, even signing a major trade deal with the United Kingdom and Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Much was accomplished, but because of what’s going on in the Middle East, President Trump will be leaving tonight after dinner with Heads of State,” she wrote in a post on X.

Trump’s warning came just over an hour after he told reporters at the G7 summit that Iran is back at the negotiating table and will sign an agreement, adding, “They would be foolish not to.”

“I’m in constant touch (with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu), and as I’ve been saying, I think a deal will be signed, or something will happen, but a deal will be signed, and I think Iran is foolish not to sign one. Iran should have signed the deal,” he added.

“I think Iran basically is at the negotiating table. They want to make a deal, and as soon as I leave here, we’re going to be doing something,” the President stated.

Earlier on Monday, Trump briefly mentioned Israel’s war with Iran, and called on Iran to make a deal.

“They have to make a deal. It’s painful for both parties, but I’d say that Iran is not winning this war. They should talk, and they should talk immediately before it’s too late,” he said.
