US Reports Cite Iran-Backed Proxy Group in Alleged Trump Assassination Plot
Reports allege Iran-backed proxy group involvement in a planned assassination plot targeting Donald Trump.
A senior Iranian-backed operative has been accused of plotting to assassinate former U.S. President Donald Trump through a newly formed proxy militant group, according to reports cited by international media and U.S. investigative sources. The alleged conspiracy is said to be part of a broader pattern of covert operations linked to Iran-aligned networks operating across multiple regions.
According to the report, Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, identified as a senior figure within the Iran-backed group Kata’ib Hizballah, is accused of coordinating activities through a newly emerged proxy organization. The group reportedly appeared rapidly following heightened regional tensions between Iran, the United States, and Israel, and is alleged to have been used as a front for coordinated violent operations.
Investigators and prosecutors, as referenced in reporting, claim that Al-Saadi used encrypted communication channels and social media platforms to encourage supporters to carry out attacks. One of the central allegations includes calls for violence against high-profile political figures, including Trump, alongside broader instructions targeting American and Jewish interests abroad.

The report further states that the proxy group was involved in multiple violent incidents across Europe, including bombings, stabbings, and arson attacks. These activities are described by investigators as part of an organized effort to expand operational reach while maintaining plausible deniability for higher-level commanders linked to established militant networks.
Authorities also allege that the accused coordinated fundraising and recruitment efforts through clandestine channels, strengthening the operational capacity of the newly formed group. The use of decentralized cells and encrypted platforms is cited as a key feature that allowed rapid mobilization of attacks across different countries.
The allegations have added to ongoing tensions between Washington and Tehran, with U.S. authorities continuing to investigate suspected foreign-backed plots targeting political figures. Iran, in similar past cases, has repeatedly denied involvement in assassination conspiracies, calling such accusations politically motivated and unsubstantiated.
