President Donald Trump issued a warning on Monday via his Truth Social platform, urging a complete and immediate evacuation of Tehran, the capital of Iran, as tensions between Israel and Iran reach a critical boiling point.
Trump’s directive comes in the wake of a dramatic escalation in hostilities that saw Israel launch preemptive strikes against multiple military targets within Iran on Friday. Since then, both nations have continued to exchange fire, leading to a rapidly deteriorating security situation in the region.

Trump reiterated his long-standing position on Iran’s nuclear ambitions. “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.

While it remains unclear what specific intelligence or information prompted his message, his statement suggests a belief that the situation in Tehran could quickly become untenable for civilians.
