Washington: US President Donald Trump’s aircraft faced a potential missile attack while returning from a NATO summit in Turkiye, according to a report by The New York Times.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Citing US officials familiar with the matter, The New York Times reported that American intelligence agencies had received information from multiple sources about a possible attack, raising concerns that Trump’s Air Force One could be targeted with a surface to air missile.<\/p>\n

According to US officials, an individual carrying a shoulder fired missile was also reportedly spotted near the NATO summit, further increasing security concerns surrounding the president.<\/p>\n

The report said US officials believed Iran was also aware of the building in Ankara where Trump was staying and even knew which floor of the building he was on.<\/p>\n

Amid concerns over a possible Iranian attack, Trump was secretly transferred to a military aircraft as a security precaution.<\/p>\n

According to the US newspaper, Israel had also provided the Trump administration with intelligence regarding a possible Iranian attack.<\/p>\n

Israel reportedly warned US officials that Air Force One could potentially be targeted with a shoulder fired missile.<\/p>\n

However, The New York Times reported that contrary to the intelligence warnings, no missile was ultimately fired. The credibility of the intelligence regarding the potential attack also remains unclear.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
