  "textContent": "\n\n\nDonald Trump has revealed contingency plans if he is killed by Iran after Israeli intelligence warned of an assassination plot.\n\nThe President said he instructed US officials to bomb Iran at \"levels they've never seen before\" if there is a successful attempt on his life.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nOn Thursday, Israel shared intelligence that Iran had devised a new plan to eliminate Mr Trump.\n\nResponding to the reports, the President told The New York Post: \"I've left instructions - if anything happens, to just literally bomb them at levels that they've never seen before.\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nTRENDING\n\nStories\n\nVideos\n\nYour Say\n\nLater, on Truth Social, he said: \"1000 Missiles are locked and loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran, with thousands of more to immediately follow, should the Iranian Government act on its threat, pronounced in many corners of the globe, to assassinate, or attempt to assassinate, the sitting President of the United States of America, in this case, ME!\n\n\"Orders have already been given, and the US Military is ready, willing, and able, for a one year period of time, subject to extension, to completely decimate and destroy all areas of Iran - PRAISE BE TO ALLAH!\"\n\nBut the President has earlier downplayed the claims of a threat against his life to reporters.\n\n\"Israel came up with nothing,\" he said. \"I've been on their list for a long time. That’s what we're dealing with.\"\n\nDetails of the plot were not immediately clear, and two sources familiar with the matter said the US had not yet vetted it, according to US outlet CNN.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nSome US officials felt the Israeli report could be an effort to sway Mr Trump's decision-making after the ceasefire broke on Tuesday.\n\nOne source said the warning was first received earlier this week.\n\nAnother said the US had received a steady stream of intelligence on Iran's plans to kill the President, but the Israeli report concerned a specific new plot.\n\nThe US has demanded Iran publicly state the Strait of Hormuz is open and stop firing on commercial ships in the vital waterway ahead of talks on Saturday.\n\nA source said Iranian officials privately disclosed to the President the attacks on commercial vessels had been done by an \"errant\" sect of hardliners attempting to undermine negotiations, according to US outlet CBS.\n\n### LATEST ON IRAN:\n\n\n\n\n  * Donald Trump unleashes 'retribution' on Iran after Islamic Republic reignites war in Middle East\n  * Iran targets US military sites across Middle East in ‘crushing response’ to strikes\n  * Iranians chant 'death to America' and demand revenge during funeral of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nVice President JD Vance, special envoy Steve Witkoff and Secretary of State Marco Rubio will take part in negotiations in Oman, with one US official expecting the vital waterway to be reopened after the meeting.\n\nIf the water passage is not opened, it was \"not going to be a great day for them\", the official added.\n\n\"They're either going to give us that statement or we're not having a good outcome for them,\" an unnamed official told Reuters.\n\nIran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on social media that Iran had followed the demands of the 14-point memorandum of understanding.\n\n\"Iran has so far kept its word, unlike the so-called US Treasury Secretary who is violating Para 9 of the MOU,\" he said.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\"That violation follows other violations and missteps by the United States.\n\n\"Reality check: There can only be mutual compliance.\"\n\nParagraph nine of the MOU is an agreement to \"maintain the status quo\", with Iran pledging not to develop its nuclear programme and the US not to impose any new sanctions or deploy additional forces.\n\nOn Friday, the US Treasury imposed sanctions against Ali Ansari, described as a \"financial facilitator\" for the regime with a \"sprawling global network of assets benefiting Iran's leader - Mojtaba Khamenei\".\n\nOn Wednesday, Mr Trump said Iran placed him at \"number one\" on its hit list as he travelled on the previous iteration of Air Force One.\n\nHe told reporters: \"I saw this morning I'm on every single one of their lists. And so far, I guess I've been a bit lucky, but maybe that doesn’t last very long.\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter**",
