The Israel Defense Forces issued an evacuation warning to Iranians in two swaths of Tehran ahead of planned attacks against military infrastructure targets there in the coming hours.
“Your presence in these areas puts your life at risk,” the IDF said in an X post from its Farsi-language account, according to a Google translation.
The warning came less than an hour after Trump announced a ceasefire plan that he says will end the war between Israel and Iran.
The timeline laid out by Trump would have Iran commit to a ceasefire around midnight Tuesday ET, while Israel would begin its own ceasefire 12 hours later.
It was not immediately clear if either Israel or Iran had signed off on that agreement.

Trump announces an Israel-Iran ceasefire timeline that he says will end the war
Trump announced on his social media platform that Israel and Iran have agreed to a “Complete and Total CEASEFIRE” that will begin around midnight Tuesday.
Representatives for Israel and Iran did not immediately appear to confirm the agreement.
Read Trump’s full Truth Social post:
CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED! Officially, Iran will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 12th Hour, Israel will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World. During each CEASEFIRE, the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL. On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, “THE 12 DAY WAR.” This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!

Khamenei: Iran ‘isn’t a nation that surrenders’
Iran’s leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, issued a defiant-sounding statement shortly after Trump celebrated the bloodless outcome of Tehran’s retaliatory strike on a U.S. military base in Qatar.
“Those who know the Iranian people and their history know that the Iranian nation isn’t a nation that surrenders,” Khamenei wrote on X.
The post conveyed a marked contrast in tone from Trump’s latest social media message, an all-caps declaration suggesting that the latest developments in the Middle East have established world peace.

U.S. Embassy in Sweden warns Iran may be ‘pressuring’ local gangs ‘to carry out attacks’

The U.S. Embassy in Sweden is warning Americans to “exercise increased caution,” because Iran “may be pressuring local criminal gangs, including the Foxtrot Network, to carry out attacks in Sweden against U.S. and Israeli interests.”
The embassy encourages Americans living in Sweden to “maintain awareness of their surroundings, particularly near the U.S. Embassy,” per an advisory.
The Foxtrot Network is a gang in Sweden and “prominent drug trafficking organization,” according to the State Department, which sanctioned the group in March.
The State Department said at the time that Iran had “leveraged the Foxtrot Network to carry out attacks on Israeli and Jewish targets in Europe, including the Israeli Embassy in Stockholm, Sweden, in January 2024.”
