Trump leaves G7 summit early due to Middle East situation | DW News

US President Donald Trump is cutting short his participation at the G7 summit and returning to Washington. The White House says his early departure is due to the "situation in the Middle East." The announcement comes just hours after Trump issued a warning to Iran on his Truth Social platform, urging people to immediately evacuate the Iranian capital, Tehran. Trump has reportedly directed his National Security team to meet in the Situation Room back in Washington.
