US media outlets are reporting that President Donald Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, was allegedly the target of an assassination plot linked to an Iraqi national said to have connections to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
According to reports first published by the New York Post, the suspect — identified as 32-year-old Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi — was recently arrested in Turkey before being extradited to the United States on terrorism-related charges.
Sources cited by US media claim the suspect allegedly made threats against Ivanka Trump in retaliation for the 2020 US drone strike that killed former IRGC commander Qasem Soleimani in Baghdad.
The reports further allege that investigators discovered plans and blueprints connected to Ivanka Trump’s Florida residence, although no official US federal indictment specifically naming Ivanka Trump as a target has yet been publicly released.
Authorities allege Al-Saadi had links to Iran-backed militia networks, including Kata’ib Hezbollah, and is being investigated in connection with multiple suspected terror plots across Europe and North America.
At the time of publication, neither the White House nor federal prosecutors had issued a detailed public statement confirming the alleged assassination claims specifically involving Ivanka Trump.
The story remains developing.
