Trump leaves the G7 summit early over Middle East tension

United States president, Donald Trump, leaves the G7 summit earlyover tensions in the Middle East, after earlier warning Iranians to evacuate Tehran. Trump says 'we’re looking at better than a ceasefire' as Iran and Israel exchange more strikes.

The US president says his departure has "nothing to do" with working on an Israel-Iran ceasefire, refuting comments by French President Emmanuel Macron. Iran and Israel are exchanging fire for a fifth day, with Iranian media reporting explosions and heavy air defense fire in Tehran overnight.

The Israeli military says Iran has launched a new wave of missiles. Iran launched two waves of missiles in response to the Israeli attacks, setting off air raid alerts in parts of central and northern Israel in the early hours.

The attacks were less intense than previous nights, and there were no reports of direct impacts or casualties.
