Al Jazeera
Intelligence officials have warned Republican presidential candidate of ‘real and specific threats from Iran’, according to his campaign.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has claimed “big threats” on his life after his US intelligence briefing on alleged threats from Iran to assassinate him.
The former United States president said on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday that “the entire US military is watching and waiting”.
“Moves were already made by Iran that didn’t work out, but they will try again … I am surrounded by more men, guns, and weapons than I have ever seen before,” he said.
His campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said in a statement on Tuesday that Trump was warned by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) “regarding real and specific threats from Iran to assassinate him in an effort to destabilize and sow chaos in the United States”.
“Intelligence officials have identified that these continued and coordinated attacks have heightened in the past few months,” Cheung said.
