Israel has claimed to have killed a top Iranian general as it traded more strikes with its long-time foe, as US President Donald Trump warned residents of Tehran to evacuate while demanding that Iran surrender without conditions.

Mr Trump left the G7 summit in Canada a day early to deal with the conflict between Israel and Iran, telling reporters on Air Force One during the flight back to Washington DC: “I’m not looking at a ceasefire. We’re looking at better than a ceasefire.”
