Group of 7 leaders called for a resolution to the crisis in the Middle East in a joint statement Monday that an official familiar with the matter said had gained the support of President Donald Trump after language in the draft was adjusted. That is typically an indication all had signed on, and an official familiar with the matter said it was issued with Trump’s blessing. CNN has reached out to the White House for comment.

Earlier Monday, officials said Trump had indicated he did not intend to sign onto the draft statement, which was being organized by European leaders at the conference. But after changing some of the language in the document — including calls for a diplomatic resolution to the crisis and upholding international law — Trump signed off, according to an official familiar with the matter.

It was released as Trump was departing the summit early to return to Washington, where he said he needed to monitor the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. The statement said the G7 leaders “reiterate our commitment to peace and stability in the Middle East.” The US embassy in Jerusalem has reiterated its warning that it cannot help Americans in Israel leave the country. The notice instructed all US government employees and their families to continue sheltering in place.

The US had issued similar guidance several days ago after Israel launched its initial attack on Iran, prompting the back-and-forth strikes that have now entered a fifth day. Israel’s main international airport and all seaports remain closed, with no commercial or charter flights leaving Ben Gurion Airport. The embassy suggested those wishing to leave the country to use land crossings to Jordan and Egypt, where flights are operating.

The alert reminded Americans to take precautions and to know the location of their nearest shelter in case of an attack by mortars, rockets, missiles, and drones. Iran has shot down an Israeli drone near the country’s Natanz nuclear facility, according to the state-affiliated FARS news agency, citing a local official. The drone was shot down “inside one of the defensive rings (area of operation) of Natanz installation’s air defense systems,” said the deputy governor of Isfahan province in central Iran, according to FARS.

The announcement was posted on Telegram along with a photo of debris and broken machinery on the ground. Natanz is considered a key nuclear site where Iran has been enriching uranium up to 60% purity, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency. Weapons-grade uranium is enriched to 90%. It was targeted in recent days by Israel’s airstrikes, with satellite images showing significant damage – including to Natanz’s main power supply building, and emergency and back-up generators.

Iran’s Foreign Affairs Minister called Israel’s attack on an Iranian broadcaster, which killed at least one employee, “the height of cowardice,” according to Iranian state-media channel IRNA. Israel attacked the studio of Iran’s state television channel, IRINN, on Monday, interrupting a live broadcast by anchor Sahar Imami. One employee was killed in the attack, the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB), which owns IRINN, said.

There were fires burning in the IRIB building following the attack, but they have since been contained, according to state-affiliated.. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed its air force had targeted a “communication center that was being used for military purposes by the Iranian Armed Forces.” The IDF said it “provided an effective advanced warning to the civilian population” ahead of the strike.

French President Emmanuel Macron said his US counterpart Donald Trump has made an offer for a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. “If the United States of America can achieve a ceasefire, it is a very good thing and France will support it and we wish for it,” Macron said, speaking in French.

The Fordow plant is buried deep in the mountains near Qom, in northern Iran, and houses advanced centrifuges used to enrich uranium up to high grades of purity. Its exact depth is not publicly known, but some estimates place it at 80 to 90 meters deep.

But analysts say there’s no guarantee one bomb could do the job. “I would bank on repeated strikes against Fordow,” CNN military analyst Cedric Leighton said. “Repeated strikes might work, but unsure,” said Peter Layton, a former Royal Australian Air Force officer.

Leiter was referring to the attack Israel carried out in Lebanon in September, which targeted pagers and walkie-talkies used by members of the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah. Explosives were hidden in the devices, killing at least 37, including children, and wounding nearly 3,000, many of them civilian bystanders.

Here are the latest developments:

Israeli residents are now permitted to leave bomb shelters following the latest detected wave of missiles from Iran, according to a statement from Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

The country’s national emergency service Magen David Adom said there have been no reports of missile impacts or casualties in central Israel and the south central Shfela region.

President Donald Trump said Monday he needs to return to Washington early from the G7 summit in Canada “as soon as I can” to manage the ongoing situation in the Middle East.

Trump’s aides announced earlier he would depart Monday evening, a day earlier than planned, to attend to pressing matters back home.

“I have to be back early for obvious reasons,” Trump said. “They understand. This is big stuff.”

President Donald Trump has directed members of his team to attempt a meeting with Iranian officials as quickly as possible, according to a person familiar with the matter and a US official, as he urgently works to determine whether Tehran is serious about diplomacy to resolve its conflict with Israel.

Since Israel launched its first wave of missiles last week, the president has maintained publicly that Iran should come to the table to strike a deal with the United States, while privately urging his team to keep lines of communication open with the Iranians and Iranian intermediaries.

In conversations with European leaders at the G7 summit in Canada, Trump told his counterparts that discussions were underway to obtain a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, and signaled he wanted US officials to meet their Iranian counterparts this week.

A US official told CNN that while nothing was set, Israel and Iran were moving in the right direction. Trump acknowledged that the Iranians had been in touch through intermediaries earlier Monday.

He was less candid about what his plans could be should those diplomatic efforts fall short, including whether he would deploy US military assets to join Israel in attempting to dismantle Iran’s nuclear facilities.

As of Monday evening, the White House insisted the US had not joined Israel in attacking Iran.

“American forces are maintaining their defensive posture, and that has not changed. We will defend American interests,” Alex Pfeiffer, a White House spokesman, wrote on X.

Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said Iran has launched another round of missiles toward Israel, telling the public to enter bomb shelters and remain there until further notice.

A short while ago, sirens began sounding in several areas across Israel to warn the public about the missiles.

President Donald Trump has directed his national security staff in Washington to convene in the Situation Room, a White House official tells CNN.

The official did not say if Trump directed the officials to convene immediately, or to be there when he returns to DC from the G7 Summit, having abruptly cut short his visit to Canada.

Republican Rep. Thomas Massie said Monday he would lead a push in the Republican-led House of Representatives to prohibit US involvement in the escalating conflict between Iran and Israel.

Massie, who is fiercely opposed to US intervention in any foreign wars, wrote on X that he would introduce a bipartisan War Powers Resolution on Tuesday.

Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia on Monday introduced his own war powers resolution aimed at keeping US forces from involvement in Israel-Iran conflict. Kaine’s measure is considered privileged, a special status that means Kaine can force a vote on the measure on the Senate floor.

It’s unlikely that House Republican leaders would bring Massie’s resolution to the floor. When the Democratic-led House took up a similar measure aiming to rein in presidential authority to use military action against Iran without congressional approval in 2020, only a handful of Republicans supported it, including Massie.

President Donald Trump is expected to depart the G7 early and return to Washington tonight.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt posted on social media about the president’s plan to cut short his attendance at the summit in Kananaskis, Canada.

Trump had been scheduled to depart Canada on Tuesday after a news conference. Soon before the White House announced his early departure, Trump posted on Truth Social that “Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!” as the conflict between Iran and Israel escalates.
