The U.S. Secret Service has increased protection of former President Trump in recent weeks due to intelligence suggesting a possible plot by Iran to attempt an assassination on the former president.
Two federal law enforcement sources told Fox News the level of the plot by Iran is unclear.
The sources said there has been an increase in Secret Service protection to Trump in recent weeks because of the intelligence.
The Department of Homeland Security and Secret Service has been increasingly concerned about Trump holding outdoor events, and have even expressed concern to Trump’s campaign.
Trump has been increasingly targeted since Soleimani’s killing in January 2020, but the new threat only developed over the past few days.
The sources also said the Iranian plot is not connected in any way to the attempted assassination of Trump by Thomas Crooks.
