Former President Donald Trump has issued a severe warning to the Iranian government, declaring that the United States is fully prepared to launch a devastating military offensive if Tehran attempts any plot against his life. Taking to his Truth Social platform, Trump stated that he has already issued orders for the U.S. military to be on high alert, claiming that 1,000 missiles are currently “locked and loaded” and aimed directly at Iran.

He further emphasized that this initial strike would be followed immediately by thousands more, warning that the U.S. military is fully equipped and authorized to completely destroy any targeted areas within the country. Trump characterized his statement as a necessary response to repeated threats he claims have been made against him globally, asserting that the U.S. military remains ready to execute these plans at any point during the upcoming year.
