Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently left his home and moved onto a military base after Iranian threats against his life, according to the New York Times.
The paper cites three people with knowledge of the matter, who spoke anonymously. It says US officials concluded in recent weeks that Iranian plotting against current and former US officials had reached a more advanced stage. That judgement was based partly on intelligence about threats to Bessent, the paper reports.
The report was relayed by Khaleej Times. No official confirmation or Iranian response has been reported, and the account has not been independently checked.
