U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has relocated from his home to a military base following Iranian threats against his life, the NYT reports.
According to U.S. intelligence reports, Iran has reached a more advanced stage in its plans to strike American officials, with threats against Bessent contributing to those concerns.
So far, this is the first high-ranking official to be subjected to heightened security measures, likely in light of the intensifying campaign of economic pressure against Iran.
