Shortly after President Donald Trump warned that "everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran" amid rising tensions between Iran and Israel, the White house posted a cryptic message praising the US military.

The White House handle on X posted a video: 250 Years of the U.S. Army — The American Soldier Will Always Be There. The video features Trump and US First Lady Melania Trump walking together and saluting the US Army.

"Whenever duty calls and whatever danger comes, the American soldier will be there. The USA will always have the grace of Almighty God and the iron will of the U.S. Army. Thanks to their extraordinary service and devotion, 250 years later, America stands tall..." –President Trump, the post said.

Earlier, on Truth Social Trump had warned that everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran.

"Iran should have signed the “deal” I told them to sign. What a shame, and waste of human life. Simply stated, IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON. I said it over and over again! Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!" the post said.

This cryptic post has fueled speculation over possible U.S. military involvement. Earlier in the day, he had cautioned Iran to halt its nuclear ambitions before it was “too late.”

The president slammed Tehran for failing to engage in diplomatic talks despite having what he described as a 60-day window to negotiate before Israel launched its offensive. “They have to make a deal,” Trump insisted, while declining to outline what conditions would prompt direct U.S. military action.
