US President Donald Trump has warned Iran that the United States is prepared to unleash an overwhelming military response if the Iranian government attempts to target or assassinate him. In a post on Truth Social, Trump claimed he had ordered the military to remain ready, stating that "1,000 missiles are locked and loaded" and aimed at Iran, with thousands more available if required. He said the directive would remain in effect for a year, with the option to extend it.
The remarks come amid heightened tensions following intelligence reports alleging renewed threats against Trump and continued instability in the Middle East. Trump's warning follows recent military confrontations and ongoing diplomatic efforts between the US and Iran, raising concerns about the potential for further escalation in the region.
