Former US President Donald Trump secretly transferred from a NATO summit in Turkey to a different military aircraft during his return journey to Washington, according to a report by The Washington Post. The reason for the switch was an Iranian threat against the President's life. Journalists and some White House staff were led to believe they were traveling on the same aircraft as Trump, even as he began his return journey.
The operation took place minutes after Trump boarded an older Air Force One aircraft in Ankara, disguised with the help of an airport catering truck. He then flew to Mildenhall aboard a smaller C-32A aircraft, before returning to the larger, more modern aircraft for the remainder of his journey. White House officials did not directly address the reported secret operation, stating that they use every tool at their disposal to address threats against the President.
