The new threats come amid a breakdown in a ceasefire between Iran and the U.S., which was signed in June. The U.S. launched new strikes on Iran earlier this week in response to Iran’s attacks on shipping in the critical waterway of the Strait of Hormuz.
On Wednesday, Trump told reporters that Iran was plotting to assassinate him. “They want to take out the U.S. leader — me,” he said. “I’m on every list. I saw this morning, I’m on every single one of their lists. And so far, I guess I’ve been a little bit lucky, but that maybe doesn’t last very long.”
However, talks between Washington and Tehran are ongoing despite the recent hostilities.
“PRAISE BE TO ALLAH!” added the U.S. president, signing off his social media post.
