U.S. President Donald Trump issued a severe warning to Iran on Saturday, vowing a significant military retaliation if Tehran pursues or attempts any assassination plot against him. Trump declared that "1,000 missiles are locked and loaded" and targeted at Iran, with thousands more prepared to launch immediately should the Iranian government act on what he described as repeated threats to kill the sitting U.S. president.

In a statement posted on his Truth Social platform, Trump asserted, "Orders have already been given, and the U.S. 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."
