President Donald Trump has called on residents to evacuate Tehran immediately, reiterating his long-standing warning that Iran must not obtain a nuclear weapon and suggesting Iran could be headed for a catastrophe by refusing to make a deal on nuclear disarmament.

“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!” the president wrote in a June 16 post on social media.
