US President Donald Trump has reportedly instructed his advisers to bomb Iran if he is assassinated, according to a recent interview. Trump stated that if anything happens to him, Iran should be bombed to an extent it has never experienced before.
Trump's Threat to Iran
In February 2025, Trump previously warned that Iran would be "wiped out" if he were killed. Despite denying reports of a new Iranian plot to assassinate him, Trump insisted that he has long been a primary target of Tehran. The threat follows Iran's vow of revenge after Trump ordered a drone strike in 2020 that killed Qassem Soleimani, former commander of Iran's Quds Force.
According to the interview, Trump's directive to his advisers was clear: if he is killed, Iran must face unprecedented bombing. This escalation underscores ongoing tensions between the US and Iran, rooted in the 2020 assassination of Soleimani.
