Oil prices rebounded on Tuesday morning in Asia after US President Donald Trump called for the immediate evacuation of Tehran. Brent crude futures, the international oil benchmark, rose 1.8 per cent to $74.

U.S. stock futures slipped and oil prices rose on Tuesday, as investors were rattled by U.S. President Donald Trump's call for everyone to evacuate Tehran with the fifth-day of Israel-Iran fighting sowing fears of a broader regional conflict.

Israel struck Iran's state-run television station during a live broadcast, forcing a reporter to run off camera following an explosion.

Mohammad-Reza Zafarghandi said in an update that an Israeli strike on Sunday on Quds Square in northern Tehran injured 59 civilians and killed 12 people, including a pregnant woman. That attack also ruptured a main water pipeline.

After canceling negotiations with the U.S. scheduled for Sunday, Tehran has signaled it is willing to talk.

In his first public comments on the Israeli strikes against Iran, the U.S. president said Tehran had brought the destruction on itself and must continue nuclear talks.
