Israel recently shared intelligence with the US about a new Iranian plot to assassinate President Trump, according to a report.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The latest assassination plan, reported by the Wall Street Journal on Thursday, comes after years of Iranian regime threats to kill Trump as revenge for the 2020 killing of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Gen. Qasem Soleimani by US forces.<\/p>\n

When asked for comment, the White House referred The Post to Trump\u2019s Wednesday remarks at the NATO summit in Ankara.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThey want to take out the US leader \u2014 me,\u201d Trump said. \u201cI\u2019m on whatever list. I saw this morning I\u2019m on every single one of their lists. And so far, I guess I\u2019ve been a bit lucky, but maybe that doesn\u2019t last very long.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are evil, sick people,\u201d the president continued. \u201cAnd we have to root out that cancer. That cancer. You know what you do? You\u2019ve got to cut out cancer early. And that\u2019s the way I feel.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump traveled to Turkey on his new Qatari \u201cpalace in the sky\u201d plane, but took a different Air Force One home. The plane switch was a strategic \u201cdistraction\u201d to keep the commander-in-chief safe, the White House said. <\/p>\n

War Secretary Pete Hegseth, who accompanied the president to the summit, was instructed not to travel to Israel as planned shortly before Trump chose to switch planes in Turkey. It\u2019s unclear if the Iranian threat extended to the war secretary.<\/p>\n

The Journal report did not include details of the alleged assassination plot.<\/p>\n

The Israelis tipped the US off about the plot earlier this week. The specific threat was not being tracked by US officials before Israel\u2019s warning and has yet to be vetted, CNN reported.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The warning comes as Trump\u2019s relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has become somewhat fraught amid the Iran war.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Trump on June 1 told Netanyahu he was \u201cf\u2013king crazy\u201d over his attacks on Lebanon, fearing they would provoke more war with Iran.<\/p>\n

\u201dYou\u2019d be in prison if it weren\u2019t for me. I\u2019m saving your ass. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this,\u201d a US official summarized Trump\u2019s comments, which the president later confirmed to The Post.<\/p>\n

The world leaders have spoken on at least two occasions since the tense June 1 call, including Thursday, and have agreed to meet \u201cin the near future,\u201d according to Netanyahu\u2019s office.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Banners vowing revenge against Trump were on full display in Tehran this week as Iranians prepared to bury late supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed on the first day of the war.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One placard, held by dozens of Khamenei\u2019s sycophants during a burial ceremony Thursday, read, \u201cWE WILL KILL TRUMP.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, crowds shouted, \u201cI swear by the blood of the Supreme \u200cLeader, Trump, \u2060we will kill you!\u201d<\/p>\n
