Pentagon Bombshell: Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth Claims Iran Attempted to Assassinate Donald Trump, Vows Brutal US Response

Published

on

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said this week that Iran attempted to assassinate US President Donald Trump, revealing the allegation during remarks on the escalating conflict between Washington and Tehran.

Hegseth said the United States will respond forcefully to threats against Americans.

“If you target Americans, we will hunt you down and kill you,” he said.

The allegation adds a new national security dimension to the confrontation between the United States and Iran and could influence decisions about expanding military operations.

US intelligence agencies have previously accused Iran of plotting against American officials following the 2020 killing of Qassem Soleimani.

The claim is intensifying debate in Washington as lawmakers question strategy while some allies voice support.
