By Alexander Cornwell and Parisa Hafezi TEL AVIV/DUBAI (Reuters) -Israel and Iran attacked each other for a fifth straight day on Tuesday, and U.S. President Donald Trump urged Iranians to evacuate Tehran,

Israel struck Iran's state-run television station during a live broadcast, forcing a reporter to run off camera following an explosion.

This marks the second time that Trump had left the G7 summit early. In 2018, at a summit in Quebec, Trump left the gathering to meet North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un.

President Donald Trump is abruptly leaving the Group of Seven summit, departing a day early Monday as the conflict between Israel and Iran intensifies and the U.S. leader has declared that Tehran should be evacuated “immediately.

The president had opposed Israeli action against Iran but came to believe that Israel had reason to act and that the U.S. would have to lend some support.

"Let him go get a television network and say it so that people listen," the president fired off at the former Fox News star.

President Donald Trump in about eight hours went from suggesting a nuclear deal remained “achievable” to urging Tehran’s 9.5 million residents to flee for their lives.

President Trump’s early departure comes after a White House official said he had decided not to sign onto a G7 statement urging restraint from both Israel and Iran.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday night cut short his participation at the G7 summit to leave Alberta, Canada, and return to Washington, D.C., to focus on the conflict between Israel and Iran. French President Emmanual Macron announced Trump had made a cease-fire offer between the two countries.

Donald Trump's former national security adviser said Israel's attacks could make a nuclear deal more likely. Trump said on Truth Social that Iranians should evacuate their capital city of Tehran. To completely destroy Iran's nuclear facilities, Israel will likely need U.S. bomber planes.
