US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has relocated from his Washington DC home to a military base following alleged Iranian threats to his life, according to US media reports. The decision came after a photo of Bessent's Georgetown home was published in the Wall Street Journal, enabling its location to be geo-located, according to a source cited by CBS.
Intelligence sources have reported that Iran has "substantially increased" efforts to target Americans, including US officials. Despite the threats, Bessent remains committed to the US effort to pressure Iran's economy, according to a Treasury Department spokesperson. The White House has not commented on the matter as of yet.
