Trump threatened Iran with 1,000 missiles over assassination plot
What's new: The warning followed reports that Israel shared intelligence on a new Iranian plan to kill the US president.
President Donald Trump threatened to "completely decimate and destroy" Iran if it tried to assassinate him, saying 1,000 missiles were "locked and loaded" against the Islamic Republic. He posted the warning late July 10 after days of renewed friction between Washington and Tehran and reports that Israel had passed the United States intelligence about a new Iranian plot. Trump also said at the NATO summit in Turkey that he was "No. 1 on the kill list for Iran." Questions about his security grew after he switched Air Force One aircraft during his trip home, though he denied any security concern prompted the change.
