Israel Warns US of Iranian Plot to Assassinate Donald Trump

Israeli intelligence warns of a new Iranian assassination plot.

Event Overview

Israel provided intelligence to the United States regarding a new Iranian plot to assassinate President Donald Trump. This follows long-standing Iranian threats for revenge over the 2020 killing of General Qasem Soleimani. While some view this as a credible escalation, other US officials and Rep. Adam Smith have expressed skepticism, suggesting the intelligence may be intended to influence US policy toward a more hawkish stance against Iran.
