Mossad Reportedly Shared Intelligence on Iranian Threats Against Trump and U.S. Officials
Mossad reportedly supplied the CIA with targeted intelligence about Iranian intentions to harm President Donald Trump and senior U.S. administration officials, according to a disclosure published Saturday evening. Senior Israeli and American officials were cited as saying that American intelligence agencies had asked Mossad to check information about the threats. The report described an alleged Iranian plan for a drone attack against senior White House officials. It also said senior American officials had been moved to secure facilities, Trump had reduced his public appearances, and special protective measures had been adopted. Earlier in November, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reportedly moved from his Washington-area home to a military base after Iranian threats. Three people familiar with the matter described the relocation. American officials had concluded in recent weeks that alleged Iranian plotting against current and former officials had advanced, drawing partly on intelligence about threats to Bessent. A Treasury spokesperson said Bessent “will not be deterred by the Iranian regime’s threats.” Since August, Bessent had led an economic-pressure campaign aimed at isolating Iran financially through tougher sanctions and restrictions on trade routes. The spokesperson said he remained committed to that campaign.
