Multiple outlets report that Israel has warned the United States about an alleged new Iranian plot to assassinate U.S. President Donald Trump. The reporting, attributed to unnamed sources and references to earlier media coverage, says the Israeli intelligence is shared directly with U.S. officials and that Washington is still assessing the credibility and details of the threat. Several accounts also note that Trump himself comments on the matter publicly, saying he believes Iran wants to “take out” the U.S. leader and adding that he believes he is on Iran-linked lists.
The revelations are described as coming amid heightened U.S.-Iran tensions, including recent U.S. actions against Iran. France 24 says it is unclear how seriously the U.S. views the alleged threat and questions whether the timing of the information becoming public could be connected to broader diplomatic and military developments. Other outlets describe the episode primarily as an intelligence-sharing warning by Israel that increases attention on the security assessment around Trump.
No source in the provided material confirms the plot’s existence or specific operational details.
