The Biden administration alerted the Secret Service of an unspecified threat to Donald Trump by Iran before the assassination attempt on the former president Saturday, though the shooting in Pennsylvania was believed to be unrelated to any Iranian effort, U.S. officials said Tuesday.

U.S. intelligence officials have long warned that Iran may seek to avenge the killing of Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani, who was assassinated by a U.S. drone in Baghdad in 2020 at the direction of Trump.
