The move has left many Iranians terrified and in dismay after one Donald Trump ordered in an instruction to immediately evacuate Tehran. Almost 10 million inhabitants of the capital now have to make a choice whether they are going to hide at home with the anticipation of what will happen next or to make their way into the heavy outflow to exit the capital of the country.President Trump said this only a few moments before ending his time in the G7 in Canada prematurely leaving many to suspect that what he said could lead to simply the next stage of escalation between Israel and Iran.Multiple individuals that make the decision to leave Tehran, are sharing their homes on the web, which has become a stunning pattern in the Persian-language social media, as individuals choose to abandon their towns they call home.They also held interviews, looked through social media to collect stories of people. Some are afraid discussing with press might put them under danger in Iran and thus they are not using real names.There are Iranians who have made their choice of leaving way before the first evacuation order over a section of Tehran was issued by Israel on Monday.Arash, one of the occupants, had departed Tehran in an estimated time of 08:45 on Monday, and made his way through the town of Qazvin, in north-western Iran.Whereas an ordinary journey of an hour-and-a-half, occupied him, counting actually, nearly five hours.He added that, many and in particular, the one that resides in other countries, were attempting to exit the country.
Scores of other Iranians in Tehran have chosen to escape after Monday, risking 13-hour traffic snarl-ups and lines at the gas pumps, having no guarantee that their houses will remain standing by the time they get back.It is only anticipated that further others will seek to take the gruesome journey outside Tehran due to the comments made by Trump. In one social media post, one of the residents said, I grabbed mementos of friends and family as well as some necessities, watered my plants and hit the road. It is impossibly difficult to leave your family without knowing that you will be able to go back."Another said: "It never was like this sad before in my house. I never know when I will ever come back."One of the users pasted the image of a working place, a computer and headphones, and wrote: I said goodbye to the things I had to get so hard... I hope they will be still alive, when I come back."Another added: "And I was silent and farewell at the time when I would come back to my beautiful safety kingdom."
What should I do? Where would I go?
The other people in the biggest city of Iran believe that the evacuation orders are just impossible to comply with.Narges has made a choice to remain in Tehran, even though she has been getting more and more scared. I think there are many more people running out since Trump made an appeal to exit last evening.According to her, the roads are congested and it is a nightmare regarding the traffic. Narges does not find the reason to attempt to escape and be stuck on the road.On Monday, the strikes on Iran state broadcaster in Tehran by Israel reminded her of the danger it is exposing itself to. She resides close to the headquarters. How frightening, so near, she said. Others have chosen to remain in place due the presence of elderly parents, young children, pets, medical conditions or just because they had no other alternatives.One of the women told the BPersian she was pregnant and had a young daughter: "I am pregnant and have a young child: what would I do? The whole construction is here."The other one told me she was alone and she did not want to travel alone such a long distance of 800km to Shiraz where her family is. And a woman who identified herself as 40 years old with two small children said to the BBC, she was not going anywhere.Then she told me, if it will all be ruined then better her kids and I go with our home together- because I can not start all over again.
Heavy air defence and explosions later were reported in Tehran immediately after Trump evacuation remarks in the early hours of Tuesday. In response to Israeli attacks, Iran carried a couple of waves of missile attacks that triggered air raid sirens in some areas of central and northern Israel.After exiting the G7, Trump entered Air Force One and told journalists, I am not going back to Washington to get a ceasefire, I want something better than a ceasefire.There was an end of which; a real one, he said, and there could be a complete give-up in it.Israel attacked nuclear infrastructure, scientists and military commanders with surprised attack on Friday last week. The Iranian state media reported that at least 224 people have been killed by Israel, during its attacks in Tehran. Israeli officials say at least 24 people were killed in Tehran retaliatory missile attacks on Israeli cities. The exchange of strikes has left both sides with dead civilians as both opponents blame each other in targeting residential neighborhoods.
