Trump Urges Tehran Residents to Flee: What's the Deal?
Protests Ignited by Trump's Urging: Iranians Encouraged to Abandon Tehran
In the midst of the heated conflict between Israel and Iran, US President Donald Trump has taken an unusual step. He's advising residents of Tehran - Iran's bustling capital - to skedaddle posthaste. "Outta there, pronto!" Trump wrote on his social media platform, stirring up quite a commotion.
With about nine million folks callin' Tehran home, it's no small bean to ask 'em all to pack up and go. Reports of backed-up traffic on highways leadin' outta town are poppin' up like pimples on a teenager's face, as many are hitched wagon and hit the road. The greater metro area's population clocks in at around 15 million souls, so it's a substantial exodus.
Politics Trump Bails Early from G7 Summit on Middle East Brouhaha So, what's the deal with Trump soundin' the alarm? It's unclear as a cloudy day, but Trump mentioned the Iranian nuclear program, which he reckons shoulda been solved by now. "Insult to injury," he muttered, wavin' his proverbial finger at the Iranians. "A pity and squandered lives," he griped in all caps, before adding, "Iran must not possess a nuclear weapon, period!"
Thing is, Iran's nuclear facilities ain't exactly tucked away in the heart of Tehran. The nearest one, the Fordo uranium enrichment plant, is nestled about 100 kilometers away. That said, Israel ain't been stickin' solely to Iran's nuclear sites in its attacks as of late.
Washington brushed off rumors of an imminent military plunge as pure bunkum in the wee hours. "An agreement will be reached, and I reckon Iran is the fool if it don't sign it," Trump said, boastin' that somethin' might pop off if they stick to their guns. "They want a deal, and once I'm gone, we'll do somethin'."

"Head for the hills for your safety!" Israeli army spokesman Avichay Adraee squawked via X, sharin' a map of Tehran's third district all marked up. The Israeli air force was gittin' ready to bomb some military infrastructure there in the near future. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu echoed the call for Tehranites to heed the warning. "Clear outta there, or you might get caught in the crossfire!" Netanyahu hollered. Just a few hours later, an Israeli attack smacked the main building of a state broadcaster.
