Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran: Trump

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump's post on Truth Social sparked off fear of further escalation of conflict in the Middle East when he wrote: "Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!"

He referred to Iran's decision to reject a deal to curb nuclear weapons development and wrote: "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!"

Meanwhile, Trump cut short his visit to Canada to attend the G7 Summit amid the spiking tension in the Middle East.

Fox News reported that apart from Trump, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio will also cut short his visit to Canada.

Officials familiar with the ongoing situation told the news channel that the United States is not striking Iran and remains in a defensive posture amid the president's comments.

Iran Launches Missile Attacks

Iran launched another barrage of ballistic missiles towards the densely populated regions of Israel, prompting the sounding of sirens in the affected areas, media reports said.

Iran announced that it has responded to the Israeli onslaught across the Gulf nations, in which Tehran has faced the majority of the blows.

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) has also confirmed the incoming missile attack on its Telegram channel.

"A short while ago, the IDF identified missiles launched from Iran towards the territory of the State of Israel. Defensive systems are operating to intercept the threat," it said.

The Israel Defense Forces on Monday claimed it had eliminated four high-ranking Iranian intelligence officials during a precision airstrike carried out by Israeli fighter jets in Tehran.

The deceased included the chief of the Intelligence Organisation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

"The IDF eliminated 4 senior Iranian intelligence officials, including the Head of the IRGC’s Intelligence Organization," the IDF wrote on X.

IDF said IAF fighter jets guided by precise intelligence struck a structure in Tehran housing top Iranian intelligence officials.

The deceased Iranian intelligence officials were identified as Mohammad Kazemi, Head of IRGC Intelligence Organization, Mohammad Hassan Mohaqiq, his deputy, Mohsen Bakri, Head of Quds Force Intelligence and Abu al-Fadl Nikouei, his deputy.
