Israel has provided the United States with new intelligence indicating that Iran is allegedly preparing a new plan to assassinate US President Donald Trump.
This is reported by The Wall Street Journal, citing informed sources.
According to the publication’s sources, the Israeli side shared information with Washington about a new threat to the American president. Details of the alleged plan were not disclosed.
As the WSJ notes, Iran has for years openly stated its intention to take revenge on Trump for the assassination of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps General Qassem Soleimani, who was killed in January 2020 in a US airstrike authorized during Trump’s first term.
The Israeli Embassy in Washington declined to comment on the publication’s information. Iran’s mission to the UN also did not respond to journalists’ requests.
Donald Trump himself hinted at a threat to his life on Wednesday while speaking to reporters in Ankara.
“They want to remove the leader of the United States – me. I’m on every list. I saw this morning – I’m on every one of their lists. And so far I’ve probably been a little lucky, but it may not last long,” the US president said.
At the same time, according to the publication, during the funeral of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, participants in the ceremony chanted calls for Trump’s death and unfurled a banner with the inscription: “We will kill Trump.”
As reported, the United Stateshas resumed strikes on Iran and announced a new military operation aimed at limiting Tehran’s ability to threaten shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
