US Forces Take Out Top Iranian Assassin Plotting Against Trump
In a stunning blow to Tehran, US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed a major victory in the ongoing military campaign. The head of the Iranian unit planning to assassinate President Donald Trump has been hunted down and killed in a precise US strike. “Iran tried to kill President Trump. And President Trump got the last laugh,” Hegseth declared.
Operation Epic Fury Targets Iranian Killers
Although refusing to name the Iranian operative, Hegseth revealed that wiping out those plotting attacks on US officials has been a core mission goal from the start. “We’ve known for a long time that Iran intended to assassinate President Trump or other US officials,” he said. “While that wasn’t the primary focus, these threats were definitely on the hit list.”
Historic Successes Mark First Four Days of Fighting
The Defence Secretary gave an upbeat update on Operation Epic Fury as it enters day four. One standout success: a US submarine torpedoed and sank a major Iranian warship, dealing a crushing blow to Tehran’s naval strength. “The results have been incredible, historic really,” Hegseth boasted. “Only the United States could lead this charge.”
Warning to Iran: The US is Crushing You
Wrapping up the briefing, Hegseth delivered a harsh warning to the Iranian regime: “America is winning decisively, devastatingly, and without mercy. They are toast, and they know it.”
This confirmation that the US eliminated a top assassin linked to a plot against a sitting American president is set to ignite political debate in Washington over the operation’s reach and justification. More details on the killed individual are expected as the military completes its strike assessment.
