Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt from an Iranian assassination squad, Pete Hegseth, U.S Secretary of War, announced in a new update on the war in the Middle East.
The dramatic announcement came during a press conference on Wednesday, where Hegseth shared new details about the escalating conflict in the Middle East. According to the U.S Secretary of War, the Iranian unit had attempted to assassinate Donald Trump, but the US military tracked down the group’s leader and killed him.
“Also yesterday, the leader of the unit who attempted to assassinate President Trump has been hunted down and killed,” Pete Hegseth said. “Iran tried to kill President Trump. And President Trump got the last laugh.”
The strong remarks didn’t stop there. Hegseth continued by emphasizing that the United States, working alongside Israel, is making major progress in its military campaign against Iran. Just four days after launching joint strikes, he signaled that the operation is far from over.
“We have only just begun,” Hegseth said, referring to efforts aimed at crippling Iran’s military capabilities.
