Watch: A trade deal, a family photo and conflict in the Middle East - Trump’s short G7
US President Donald Trump has cut short his visit to the Group of Seven summit in Canada, with the White House saying he must return to Washington to deal with the escalating conflict between Iran and Israel.
"I have to be back early for obvious reasons," Trump said, as reports circulated he had instructed the White House National Security Council to meet upon his return.
US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth earlier announced the "deployment of additional capabilities" to the Middle East to enhance the Pentagon's "defensive posture" in the region.
But American officials rejected suggestions that the US was about to join Israeli offensive operations against Iran.
The White House was at pains to emphasise that Trump had "a great day" at the summit, saying much was accomplished, including a trade deal between the US and UK.
But the president's press secretary said he was leaving the gathering of world leaders at Kananaskis in the Canadian Rockies after dinner on Monday night because of "what's going on in the Middle East". She did not elaborate.
It means the US president will miss in-person meetings with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum that were scheduled for Tuesday, the final day of the summit.
Watch: "I have to be back", says Trump on his early G7 departure
At a photo session on Monday, Trump said it was important he return to Washington for "big stuff".His departure came as Israel and Iran attacked each other for a fifth straight day.
Earlier the president posted on social media that Iran should have signed a deal that he put forward to them in the most recent round of US-Iran nuclear talks.
"Simply stated, IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON," he wrote. "I said it over and over again!"
Trump also urged Iranians on his social media platform Truth Social to "immediately evacuate" their capital, Tehran, a city of up to 17 million people. He did not offer further details.
Shortly afterwards, Iranian media reported explosions and heavy air defence fire in Tehran early on Tuesday. That came hours after Israel targeted Iran's state broadcaster, forcing a presenter to flee mid-broadcast.
In Israel, air raid sirens wailed in Tel Aviv after midnight and an explosion was heard as Iranian missiles targeted the country again.
World leaders at the G7 summit said they understood Trump's need to leave early.
"If the United States can achieve a ceasefire, that's a very good thing," said French President Emmanuel Macron.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Trump's exit was "understandable", despite the two being scheduled to meet on Tuesday to discuss tariffs.

The G7 faced division earlier over conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and between Israel and Iran.
Trump was planning to reject a summit statement on the Iran-Israel conflict, according to the BBC's US partner CBS.
The draft called for de-escalation, included language about monitoring Iran, and urged both sides to protect civilians.
Trump also said at the summit that it had been a "big mistake" for the former G8 to expel Russia from the group in 2014 after it annexed Crimea.
"Putin speaks to me," said the US president. "He doesn't speak to anybody else... he's not a happy person about it."
But there was some progress as Trump and British Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer signed a deal on tariffs.
Trump told reporters the UK was "very well protected" from future import taxes. "You know why? Because I like them."

Monday also saw a bilateral between Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Trump, after which Carney said a trade deal might be struck between the two countries within 30 days to resolve tit-for-tat import taxes.
This marks the second time that Trump had left the G7 summit early. In 2018, at a summit in Quebec, Trump left the gathering to meet North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un.
Israel has claimed control of Iranian airspace since launching its air war last Thursday with a surprise attack that it says has killed many top military commanders and atomic scientists.
However, Israel does not appear to have achieved its goal of destroying Iran's nuclear development programme.
Military analysts say only the US has the bombers and bunker-busting bombs that can penetrate the deepest of Iranian nuclear facilities, especially that of Fordow.
Israeli strikes have killed at least 224 people in Iran, according to the Iranian health ministry. In Israel, the government said at least 24 people had died.
It is one of the largest bombardments of the capital since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion
At least 14 people have been killed overnight and dozens more wounded in Russian strikes on the Ukrainian capital Kyiv, officials say.
It was one of the largest bombardments of the capital since the beginning of the full-scale invasion more than three years ago.
Ukraine's interior minister, Ihor Klymenko, said a total of 440 drones and 32 missiles had been launched at the country.
Meanwhile, Russian air defence units intercepted and destroyed 147 Ukrainian drones overnight, Moscow's defence ministry said.
The strikes on Kyiv lasted more than nine hours – sending residents fleeing to underground shelters from before midnight until after sunrise.
Officials said a ballistic missile hit a nine-storey apartment building in one district, with a total of 27 districts of the city coming under fire.
"Waking up in utter nightmare: people trapped under rubble and full buildings collapsed," Ukrainian MP Lesia Vasylenko wrote on X.
Klymenko said rescue teams were still working to free people.
Loud explosions rocked the city, along with the rattle of the machine guns used by mobile Ukrainian air defence units to shoot down drones.
More sirens later in the morning disrupted rescue operations in the city, hampering emergency workers searching the rubble for survivors.
Russia has intensified its air attacks against Ukrainian cities in recent weeks, with a tactic of sending large waves of drones and decoys designed to overwhelm Ukrainian air defences.
Kyiv was hit by a barrage of strikes overnight into Tuesday
President Volodymyr Zelensky called Russia's most recent wave of strikes "pure terrorism".
He accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of carrying out the large scale strikes "solely because he can afford to continue this war".
"It is bad when the powerful of this world turn a blind eye to this," he said, adding: "It is the terrorists who should feel the pain, not normal, peaceful people."
Drone strikes also hit the southern Ukrainian city of Odesa, killing one person and injuring at least 10 others, Klymenko said.
Zelenksy had been hoping to speak with the US President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Canada on Tuesday but Trump cut short his stay amid the escalating crisis in the Middle East.
The news will come as a blow to Zelensky and his administration, which had been hoping to secure US support at the conference for Ukraine's strategic and military goals.
Images of the villa show bullet holes in the windows and blood stains on the floor
Bali police have arrested two people over a shooting which killed one Australian and seriously injured another.
Zivan Radmanovic, 32, was shot dead just after midnight on Saturday after two men broke into his villa in Munggu, in the south of the Indonesian tourist island.
One of the suspects was arrested in Jakarta, Indonesia's capital, while the other was caught abroad, police said without giving more details.
Mr Radmanovic's wife earlier told police she was awakened by her husband's screams before finding his body in the bathroom, Australian media reported.
Sanar Ghanim, who was also shot, is getting treatment for his injuries in hospital. Local police say the 34-year-old was also beaten.
Mr Ghanim's wife testified to seeing the attackers. Neither women were injured.
Police say they are still investigating the shooters' motive, but did not give further details on the arrest on Monday.
They have collected 17 bullet casings, two intact projectiles and 55 bullet fragments from the scene.
Images of the villa published by Australian media show bullet holes in the windows and blood stains on the floor.
Several witnesses told police they heard the shooters speak in English with strong Australian accents.
One wore an orange jacket with a dark helmet, while the other wore a dark green jacket, a black mask, and a dark helmet, according to witnesses.
"I can't start my bike," one of them reportedly said, before eventually managing to take off on a scooter, the witnesses added.
The incident took place in Bali's tourist district of Badung, where many well-known beaches such as Kuta and Canggu are located.
Violent crime is relatively uncommon in Bali, which attracts millions of international visitors a year.
On Friday, after Israel launched an unprecedented attack on Iran, its Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed Iranians directly. Speaking in English, he told them that the time had come for them to stand up against an "evil and oppressive regime".
Israel's military operations were, he announced, "clearing the path for you to achieve your freedom".
Now, as the military confrontation between Iran and Israel intensifies, and the range of targets widens, many are asking - what is Israel's real endgame?

Is it simply to end, as Netanyahu also declared on Friday on the first night of strikes, "the Islamic regime's nuclear and ballistic missile threat"?
Was it also to finish off any more talks between the US and Iran, to reach a new negotiated deal to curb Iran's nuclear programme in exchange for the lifting of painful sanctions?
Or could that message to Iranians about clearing a path to achieve freedom nod to an even bigger aim of trying to bring an end to Iran's clerical rule?
From generals to Trump: Who has his ear?
The political career of Israel's longest-serving prime minister has been marked by his personal mission to warn the world of the dangers posed by the Islamic Republic of Iran - from a cartoon of a bomb he's shown at the United Nations, to his repeated refrain during the last 20 months of a burning regional war that Iran was the biggest threat of all.
American presidents and Netanyahu's own generals are known to have pulled him back, more than once over the years, from ordering military strikes against Iran's nuclear facilities.
US President Donald Trump says he didn't give it a green light. But even what seems to have been at least an amber one seems to have been enough.
"Now he is in, he is all in," is how one western official described Netanyahu's game. He also underlined the view that Israel's main goal was to cripple Iran's nuclear programme.
That decision has been widely condemned by states across the region, as well as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) whose Director-General Rafael Grossi underlined: "I have repeatedly stated that nuclear facilities must never be attacked, regardless of the context or circumstances." They have also been condemned by legal scholars who argue that the strikes are illegal under international law.
But many are now asking whether Israel's prime minister is pursuing the same goals as his top advisors and allies.

US President Donald Trump says he didn't give Israel's recent attack a green light
"While Netanyahu has personally stacked his fortunes on regime change, the Israeli political and military establishment are committed to profoundly setting back Iran's nuclear program," says Dr Sanam Vakil, Director of the Middle East and North Africa programme at the Chatham House think tank.
"The latter might be difficult but somewhat achievable," she adds. "The former looks harder to deliver in a short and intensifying conflict."
Destroying Iran's nuclear programme
Netanyahu cast Israel's operation as pre-emptive strikes to destroy an existential threat. Iran's advance, he declared, was "at the 90th minute" towards the development of a nuclear bomb.
Western allies have echoed his declaration that Tehran must not be allowed to cross this line. But Netanyahu's clock has also been widely queried.
Iran has repeatedly denied it has decided to build a bomb. In March, Tulsi Gabbard, the US Director of National Intelligence, testified that the US intelligence community "continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon".
The IAEA said in its latest quarterly report that Iran had amassed enough uranium enriched up to 60% purity - a short, technical step away from weapons grade, or 90% - to potentially make nine nuclear bombs.
In these first few days, three key facilities in Iran's vast programme have been targeted - Natanz, Isfahan, Fordow. The IAEA has said that a pilot fuel enrichment plant, above ground, at Natanz was destroyed.
The IAEA also reported that four "critical buildings" were damaged at Isfahan. Israel describes the damage to Iran's facilities as "significant"; Iran says it's limited.
And Israel is also striking "sources of knowledge" by assassinating, so far, at least nine nuclear scientists and a growing list of top military commanders. Its list of targets, which includes military bases, missile launch pads and factories, is now widening to economic and oil facilities.
Iran is also hitting back with its own expanding hit list as civilian casualties mount in both countries.

Fordow is Iran's second-largest and most heavily protected site
But to deal a decisive blow to Iran's vast nuclear programme, Israel would have to do significant damage to Fordow, its second-largest and most heavily protected site. The complex, deep underground in a mountain, is where some experts believe Iran has stockpiled much of its near weapons-grade uranium.
Reports in Israeli media say the current aim is to try to cut off access to the facility.
Israel doesn't have the bunker-busting bombs it would need to smash through so much rock. But the US Air Force has them. They're known as MOP – the precision-guided 30,000lb Massive Ordnance Penetrator. But it would still take many strikes, over many days, to cause major damage.
"I think the most likely scenario is that Netanyahu will call Trump and say 'I've done all this other work, I've made sure there is no threat to the B-2 bombers and to US forces but I can't end the nuclear weapons programme,'" Richard Nephew, former US official and Iran expert at the Columbia University Center on Global Energy Policy, told the BBC's Newshour programme.
A Western official told me, "It's still not clear which way President Trump will jump."
Timed to derail peace talks?
Trump keeps veering back and forth. At the start of last week, he urged Israel to stop threatening Iran militarily because an attack could "blow it" when it came to the nuclear negotiations with Iran he's always said he much prefers.
Once Israel attacked, he praised the strikes as "excellent" and warned "there's more to come, a lot more". But he also mused they could help push Iran towards making a deal.
Then in a post on Sunday on his Truth Social platform, he declared "We will have PEACE, soon, between Israel and Iran! Many calls and meetings now taking place."
Iran's negotiators now suspect that the talks, which were set to resume in the Omani capital Muscat on Sunday, had all been a ploy to convince Tehran an Israeli attack was not imminent, despite mounting tensions. Israel's blistering salvos on Friday morning caught it off guard.

At the start of last week, Trump urged Israel to stop threatening Iran militarily
Others also see the timing as significant. "Israel's unprecedented strikes were designed to kill President Trump's chances of striking a deal to contain the Iranian nuclear programme," says Ellie Geranmayeh, deputy head of the Middle East and North Africa programme at the European Council on Foreign Relations.
"While some Israeli officials argue that these attacks aimed to strengthen the US leverage in the diplomatic path, it is clear their timing and large-scale nature was intended to completely derail talks."
Officials with knowledge of these negotiations had told me last week that "a deal was within reach". But it all depended on the US moving away from its maximum demand for Iran to end all nuclear enrichment, even from much smaller single-digit percentages commensurate with a civilian programme. Tehran viewed that as a "red line".
After President Trump pulled out of the landmark 2015 nuclear deal in his first term, partly under repeated urging from Netanyahu, Iran moved away from its obligation to restrict enrichment to 3.67% - a level used to produce fuel for commercial nuclear power plants - and started stockpiling too.
In this second attempt, the US leader had given Iran "60 days" to do a deal – a window viewed by mediators with experience and knowledge of this field as far too small for such a complex issue.
Israel attacked on the 61st day.
"The Oman channel is dead for the time being," says Dr Vakil. "But regional efforts are underway to de-escalate and find off ramps."
Netanyahu's 'Churchillian mood'
Viewed from Tehran, this escalation is not just about stockpiles, centrifuges, and supersonic missiles.
"They see it as Israel wanting to, once and for all, downgrade Iran's capabilities as a state, its military institutions, and change the balance of power between Iran and Israel in a decisive way, and perhaps topple the Islamic Republic as a whole, if it can," argues Vali Nasr, Professor of Middle East studies and International Affairs at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies and author of the 2025 book Iran's Grand Strategy.
It's unclear how the Iranian public might respond.

Iranian people have suffered, for years, the effects of swingeing international sanctions as well as systematic corruption
A nation of 90 million people has suffered, for years, the effects of swingeing international sanctions as well as systematic corruption. Protests have flared, year after year, on issues ranging from high inflation to low employment, shortages of water and electricity to the zeal of morality police restricting women's lives. In 2002, unprecedented waves of protests demanded greater freedoms; they were met by a harsh crackdown.
Mr Nasr offers his assessment of the public mood now. "Maybe at the beginning, when four or five very unpopular generals were killed, they may have felt a sense of relief, but now their apartment buildings are being hit, civilians have been killed, and the energy and electrical infrastructure of the country is under attack," he says.
"I don't see a scenario in which the majority of Iranians are going to side with an aggressor against their country while it's bombing it, and somehow view that as liberation."
But Netanyahu's statements keep hinting at broader targeting.

Only the US can bring this to a timely end-point in the near future, according to Daniel Levy, President of the U.S. Middle East project
On Saturday, he warned his country will strike "every site and every target of the ayatollah regime".
On Sunday, when specifically asked by Fox News if regime change was part of Israel's military effort, Israel's premier replied it "could certainly be the result because the Iran regime is very weak".
"They want to play to the regime's fears of losing control as part of their psychological warfare," says Anshel Pfeffer, Israel Correspondent at The Economist and author of a biography of Netanyahu.
"The consensus within Israeli intelligence is that predicting or engineering the downfall of the Iranian regime is pointless. It could happen soon, or in 20 years."
But Mr Pfeffer believes the prime minister's thinking may be different. "I think there's a good chance that Netanyahu, unlike his spy chiefs, actually believes in the message; he is in a Churchillian mood."
By Sunday evening, reports started appearing on US media, each citing their own sources, that President Trump had vetoed in recent days an Israeli plan to kill Iran's Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The buzz began when Reuters first broke the story quoting two anonymous US officials.
Israeli figures questioned on their aims, from the foreign minister Gideon Sa'ar to the National Security Council Chief Tzachi Hanegbi, have emphasised their focus is not on Iran's political leadership. But Hanegbi added a coda – "but the concept of 'at the moment' is valid for a limited time."
In the end, the contours of this endgame will be shaped by the course of a perilous and unpredictable confrontation, and an unpredictable US President.
"Success or failure is overwhelmingly being defined by whether the US can be dragged in," assesses Daniel Levy, President of the U.S. Middle East project and former Israeli government advisor. "Only the US can bring this to a timely end-point in the near future by determining outcomes and stop points."

President Trump's comments on the Israel-Iran conflict have veered from full throated support for Israel's strikes to strongly distancing himself from them, and back again.
His ambiguity has added to the sense of uncertainty as the fighting itself escalates.
Meanwhile the Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the attacks were "fully coordinated" with the US.
So what factors are weighing on Trump and, crucially, what are his options now?
1. Bowing to Netanyahu pressure and escalating
As Israeli missiles hit Tehran on Thursday, Trump threatened Iran's leaders with "even more brutal" attacks from his Israeli ally armed with American bombs.
We know Trump's ultimate objective. He says, like Netanyahu, that Iran can't have a nuclear bomb. Crucially, he has said his preferred option (unlike Netanyahu) is via a deal between the US and Iran (this route also reflects his self-described image as a world-class dealmaker).
But he has equivocated over how to get there, sometimes leaning into the threat of force, other times pushing the diplomacy. Last week he even said in the same breath that an Israeli attack on Iran would help a deal or it would "blow it".
His unpredictability is sometimes portrayed by his supporters after the fact as strategic - the so-called "madman" theory of foreign relations. This theory is one that has previously been used to describe Trump's negotiating tactics and suggests that deliberate uncertainty or unpredictability about escalation works to coerce adversaries (or even allies in Trump's case) into complying. It was famously attributed to some of the Cold War practices of President Richard Nixon.
Some of Trump's advisers and supporters back the "maximum pressure" side of the madman theory when it comes to his approach to Iran. They think the threats will in the end prevail because, they argue, Iran is not serious about negotiating (even though in 2015 the country signed an Obama-led nuclear deal that Trump later pulled out of).

Smoke rises from explosion at state broadcasting building in Tehran
Netanyahu has applied constant pressure on Trump to go down the military not diplomatic path, and the US president - despite his oft-stated desire to win the Nobel Peace Prize - may in the end see a need to deliver on his more belligerent threats to Tehran's leadership
Israel may also push harder behind the scenes for American involvement to, as it sees it, to finish the job. The US has bunker buster bombs Israel believes can destroy Iran's underground uranium enrichment site at Fordow.
As the fighting escalates, so does the pressure on Trump from the hawkish camp of Republicans in Congress who have long called for regime change in Iran.
Trump will also see the argument that it could force the Iranians into negotiating with him with a now weaker hand. But the fact remains that the Iranians already were at that table, as a sixth round of talks due with Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff had been planned in Oman on Sunday.
The talks are now abandoned.
2. The middle ground - holding the course
So far, Trump has reiterated that the US is not involved in Israel's attacks.
Escalation comes with significant and potentially legacy-defining risks for Trump. American naval destroyers and ground based missile batteries are already helping in Israel's defence against the Iranian retaliation.
Some of Trump's advisers at the National Security Council are likely to be cautioning against him doing anything that could add to the intensity of Israel's attacks on Iran in the immediate days, especially with some Iranian missiles breaching Israeli-US defences to deadly effect.
Netanyahu is now arguing that targeting Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei would end, not escalate, the conflict.
But an anonymous US official briefed to some news outlets at the weekend that Trump made clear he was against such a move.

3. Listening to the Maga voices and pulling back
One of the big political factors playing on Trump's mind is his domestic support.
Most Republicans in Congress still staunchly back Israel, including continued American arms supplies to the country. Many have vocally backed Israel's attacks on Iran.
But there are key voices within Trump's Make America Great Again (Maga) movement who now outright reject this traditional "ironclad" support for Israel.
Over the last few days they've asked why the US is risking being drawn into a Middle East war given Trump's "America First" foreign policy promise.
The pro-Trump journalist Tucker Carlson wrote a stinging criticism on Friday saying the administration's claims not to be involved weren't true, and that the US should "drop Israel".
He suggested Mr Netanyahu "and his war-hungry government" were acting in a way that would drag in US troops to fight on his behalf.
Carlson wrote: "Engaging in it would be a middle finger in the faces of the millions of voters who cast their ballots in hopes of creating a government that would finally put the United States first."
Similarly, the staunch Trump loyalist US representative Marjorie Taylor Greene posted on X that: "Anyone slobbering for the US to become fully involved in the Israel/Iran war is not America First/MAGA".
This represents a considerable vulnerability for Trump.
It adds pressure on him to put distance between the US and Israel's offensive and there are signs, in public at least, that he has responded.
The Maga debate over the weekend coincided with him posting on social media that he joined Russia's president Putin in calling for an end to the war. By Sunday he said Iran and Israel should make a deal, adding: "The US had nothing to do with the attack on Iran".
Iran has already threatened to attack US bases in the region if, as is now happening, Washington assists Israel's defence.
The risk of any American casualties would likely see the Maga isolationist argument grow exponentially, in turn potentially adding pressure on Trump to pull back and urge Mr Netanyahu to bring the offensive to a swifter end.

Tennis player Boulter reveals scale of online abuse

Boulter shares messages of 'disgusting' online abuse
Published
Katie Boulter had just lost a tie-break at the French Open when the death threats started.
It did not matter that the Briton would go on to win the match.
"Hope you get cancer," said one message.
Another - laced with expletives - referenced damaging her "grandmother's grave if she's not dead by tomorrow" and "candles and a coffin for your entire family".
A third said: "Go to hell, I lost money my mother sent me."
The British number two's response, as she reads through them 10 days later, is a mix of despair, resignation and fear.
Boulter agreed to sit down with BBC Sport to provide unprecedented insight into the volume and nature of abuse received by players, including sharing screenshots of her private inbox.
'It shows how vulnerable we are'
Boulter's reasoning for sharing the messages is two-fold.
The first, she says, is abusive content like this has become "the norm". Boulter, 28, also has fears about the impact it can have on younger players.
"At the very start of my career, it's probably something I took very personally... getting comments about the way you look," she says.
"It becomes more apparent every single time you go on your phone.
"I think it increases in number and it also increases in the level of things that people say. I don't think there's anything off the cards now."
The message threatening her loved ones was sent during her French Open first-round match against Carole Monnet on 29 May.
After losing the first-set tie-break, Boulter rallied to win 6-7 (4-7) 6-1 6-1 - her first victory in the main draw at Roland Garros.
As she reflects on the messages she receives, she says it is hard to differentiate between those that constitute a genuine risk and those that do not.
"I think it just kind of shows how vulnerable we are," Boulter says. "You really don't know if this person is on site. You really don't know if they're nearby or if they know where you live or anything like that."
Looking again at the message hoping she gets cancer, she shakes her head.
"I just wonder who the person is that has sent that," she says.
"I don't think it's something that I would ever say to my worst enemy. It's just an awful, awful thing to say to anyone. It's horrible."

Calls to tackle abuse linked to betting
Boulter believes a lot of the abuse she is sent is from people who have placed bets on her matches, given it comes after victories as well as defeats.
She says she has become better at moving on from it, or simply not looking at her direct messages, but the impact is clear.
"As far as death threats, it's just not something you want to be reading straight after an emotional loss," she says.
"A lot of the time you get it after you win as well."
Statistics shared exclusively with BBC Sport demonstrate the level of abuse aimed at players through social media, and what is being done to try to address it.
The figures - provided by data science firm Signify, the International Tennis Federation (ITF) and Women's Tennis Association (WTA) - show that in 2024, about 8,000 abusive, violent or threatening messages were sent publicly to 458 tennis players through their social media accounts.
A significant proportion of abuse stems from betting, according to Signify, which has been working with tennis authorities on detecting abuse through an artificial intelligence-led detection system called Threat Matrix.
More than a quarter of all abuse (26%) was targeted at five players.
The most prolific account sent 263 abusive messages, and 15 accounts were escalated to law enforcement.
Nine of the 10 most prolific accounts - the majority of which were related to angry gamblers - were either suspended or had content removed.
Details of 39 account holders were shared with the tennis authorities and betting industry for further action.
Across the year, angry gamblers sent 40% of all detected abuse, with messages clearly related to betting activity because of the timing or content of the abuse.
Asked for a response, a Betting and Gaming Council spokesperson said its members "do not tolerate abuse on social media, which has no place in betting or sport".
It added: "It is vital social media companies take swift action against users, and remove offensive content."
Meta, which owns Instagram and Facebook, declined to provide a comment on the record but has developed various tools to try to prevent people from seeing abuse - including hiding and filtering offensive or unwanted comments or images and technology that tracks and removes abuse.
Boulter, who is ranked 39th in the world, says explicit images are another problem for players.
"I've had quite a few of those sorts of things," says Boulter, though she did acknowledge she thought "a lot of things" were filtered out through Instagram.
"I have noticed that more in my hidden messages or requests, which is a place I don't go to very often.
"That's also a larger problem. Youngsters really shouldn't be seeing things like that or being sent things like that."
Boulter says she has occasionally engaged with those who have sent her abuse, in an effort to get them to think about what they have said.
She says: "I've just tried to send them a nice message [so] maybe they can take a second and look at themselves and go: 'Oh, well maybe I shouldn't have sent that.'
"Sometimes the replies I actually get from that is them saying: 'Oh no, I'm a huge fan. I'm so sorry. I didn't want to send you that stuff, but it was emotional, I didn't mean to. You know, I still support you. I think you're amazing.'
"They don't realise sometimes what they've actually said to these people."
Boulter is preparing for the level of abuse to increase when she plays at her home Grand Slam.
"Wimbledon for me would probably be pretty astronomical," she explains, adding she also receives abuse based on the performances of her fiance - Australian world number 12 Alex de Minaur.
"As a couple, we actually both get a little bit from each other as well, so he tends to get some of my matches if I've lost, and if he's lost then sometimes I get his and likewise sometimes when he's won.
"You can get hundreds of messages after games, after points, after sets and after matches."
Threat Matrix was first used by tennis authorities in January 2024 after collaboration between the ITF, WTA, All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) and United States Tennis Association (USTA). It has been used in other sports over the past five years.
It covers WTA and ITF players throughout the year, with all competitors offered the service during Wimbledon and the US Open.
Players can also share abuse received through direct messages, and are offered security advice.
Sally Bolton - chief executive of AELTC - told BBC Sport social media has made existing levels of abuse "significantly worse".
"We try very hard to protect the players when they're on site and digitally we are investing in helping to support them to not have that abuse happen," she said.
"It's disappointing that athletes aren't able to go about what they do without receiving that abuse, but unfortunately it is a reality, and betting on sport now I'm afraid is also a reality, so we have to think about how we can mitigate some of that threat and risk."
The WTA and ITF told us protecting players from online abuse was "a key priority".
"From law enforcement escalation and platform intervention to banning abusers from our events, perpetrators must understand that they will face consequences for their actions," they said in a statement.
The WTA and ITF also defended the partnerships in place which share data with third-party organisations - including betting companies - insisting it increases regulation and generates income for projects such as Threat Matrix.
"Betting on sport is inevitable, so it is crucial that the data used for that purpose comes from one official source. This is why we have rigorously vetted partnerships with official data suppliers - without them, betting on tennis could take place in unregulated markets, based on unofficial data, for which there is no oversight and little or no deterrent to corruptors."
Jonathan Hirshler - CEO of Signify Group - highlighted how a "significant proportion" of abuse comes from a "relatively small" number of accounts.
He added: "Constructive dialogue with betting operators, as well as social media platforms and law enforcement would be a positive next step to discuss what collective action can be taken to address these concerns."
