U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has relocated to a secure military base with his family due to threats from Iran that officials described as having reached an "advanced stage." This was reported by Fox News, the Jerusalem Post, and other outlets. The U.S. administration clarified that this move will not deter its ongoing economic campaign against Tehran. Meanwhile, U.S. officials noted that Iran's capacity to carry out large-scale attacks within the United States or in overseas territories remains limited. Further details regarding the specific nature of the threats or the duration of the stay at the base have not yet been released.
