President Trump issued a stark warning to Iran late Friday after reports emerged that the Islamic Republic had plotted an assassination attempt against him. In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated that the United States has missiles “Locked and Loaded” and aimed at Iran, ready to act should the regime follow through on its death threats.

The warning comes amid escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran, with Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei also mentioned in the context of the situation. The reported assassination plot has intensified concerns over security and diplomatic relations.
