Israel Shares Intelligence With US on Iran's Alleged Assassination Plot Against Trump

Israel recently provided the United States with intelligence indicating that Iran is considering a new assassination plan targeting then-President Donald Trump. This report was published on Thursday night by the American newspaper The Wall Street Journal. The White House did not comment directly on the report but noted that Trump himself stated earlier in the week that he is on Iran's hit list. According to the intelligence reportedly shared with the US, Iran has sought to assassinate Trump since he ordered the killing of Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani at the end of his first term in 2020. The report also mentions that Israel is interested in conducting strikes in Iran but is awaiting Trump's approval following recent nights of attacks.
