President Trump called on Iranian civilians to "immediately evacuate Tehran" on Monday evening, providing no additional details about what was coming.
Why it matters: It's not immediately clear what triggered Trump's dramatic post on Truth Social. Israel has been conducting strikes in Tehran since Thursday night, but the U.S. has so far declined to join the operation.
What he is saying: "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.

Shortly after Trump's post, Iranian media reported explosions and heavy air defense fire in Tehran. It's unclear if there was any relation between Trump's post and the attack.
