President Trump warned that “everyone” in Tehran should “immediately evacuate” in a Monday night Truth Social post that also criticized Iran’s decision not to enter into a nuclear deal.
“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!” Trump wrote in the post.
Israeli officials also called for those in Tehran to evacuate earlier Monday ahead of its continued military campaign against Iran, which has included slews of missile exchanges between the conflicting countries.
Monday marked the fourth day of military action after Israel originally launched multiple missiles aimed at Iran’s nuclear facilities and military leadership last Friday.
On Sunday, Trump said that it is “possible” the US could get involved in the conflict.
There are roughly 9.5 million people in Tehran.
