An alleged terror operative tied to Iran-backed groups reportedly plotted to assassinate Ivanka Trump in retaliation for the U.S. killing of Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani.
Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, a 32-year-old Iraqi national recently arrested in Turkey, allegedly vowed to kill the president’s daughter and gathered information about her Florida home, according to sources cited by the New York Post.
“After Qasem was killed, he went around telling people ‘we need to kill Ivanka to burn down the house of Trump the way he burned down our house,’” former Iraqi embassy official Entifadh Qanbar told the outlet.
Qanbar claimed Al-Saadi possessed a blueprint of Ivanka Trump’s home. A second source reportedly confirmed the alleged plot.
Authorities say Al-Saadi was extradited to the United States after his May 15 arrest and is accused of orchestrating attacks on American and Jewish targets across Europe and North America.
Federal prosecutors linked him to the firebombing of a bank in Amsterdam, a shooting at the U.S. consulate in Toronto, and attacks targeting Jewish victims and synagogues.
