Trump Claims ‘1,000 Missiles Locked and Loaded’ After Assassination Threats, Declares Ceasefire Over

US President Donald Trump has issued a stark warning to Tehran following reports of an alleged Iranian assassination plot against him. He said he has instructed the US military that any attempt on his life would result in Iran being bombed “like they have never seen before.”
In a Truth Social post, Trump claimed the US has “1,000 missiles locked and loaded” aimed at Iran, with thousands more ready to follow immediately. He said the military is prepared to “obliterate” Iranian territory for a period of one year, extendable if necessary.
The threats came after anti-US chants of “we will kill Trump” were reported at the funeral of late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Speaking to reporters at the NATO summit in Ankara, Trump said he is on “every hit list” and admitted he has been “a little lucky” so far.
Trump also declared the US-Iran ceasefire over, later confirming Washington had agreed to continue negotiations. CNN reported that Qatari mediators traveled to Iran in coordination with the US to restart talks, while Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is expected to travel to Oman to discuss the Strait of Hormuz.
Araghchi responded to Trump’s threats by accusing Washington of violating the memorandum of understanding signed last month, specifically the clause barring new sanctions or additional troop deployments near Iran before a final agreement.
Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif called Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, urging restraint and dialogue, and offered Pakistan as an “honest and sincere mediator.” Egypt’s and Qatar’s foreign ministers also separately called for de-escalation.
