President Donald Trump raged at Iran again on Monday afternoon for failing to sign a "deal" he said he told the country to sign.
Trump took to his Truth Social platform on Monday to attack the country, which has seen at least 224 people killed — the vast majority reportedly civilians — since Israel began its airstrikes late last week. More than 1,400 people have been injured in the country, which has also seen significant damage to civilian infrastructure, including hospitals.
"Iran should have signed the 'deal' I told them to sign. What a shame, and waste of human life," Trump wrote.
He repeated his declaration that the country cannot have a nuclear weapon.
"I said it over and over again! Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!" Trump wrote.
His comments come as Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi wrote on X, "If President Trump is genuine about diplomacy and interested in stopping this war, next steps are consequential."
"Israel must halt its aggression, and absent a total cessation of military aggression against us, our responses will continue. It takes one phone call from Washington to muzzle someone like Netanyahu," said Araqchi.
Israel began its surprise strikes Friday, killing nearly all of the top echelon of Iran's military commanders and its top nuclear scientists. Israel has said it controls Iran's airspace and plans to step up its attacks in coming days.
About two dozen people have been killed in Israel as a result of Iran's missile attacks, all civilians.
