Pro-Iranian Iraqi Militias Offer $10 Million Reward for Assassination of Donald Trump

Pro-Iranian Shia militias in Iraq have announced a $10 million reward for anyone who successfully assassinates former US President Donald Trump. The bounty is framed as retaliation for the 2020 US drone strike that killed Iranian General Qasem Soleimani and Iraqi militia commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis. According to Iran's Press TV, the reward was funded by donations from supporters of Shia groups in Iraq. The militias, operating under the banner of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, have previously carried out attacks on US forces in Iraq and Syria, as well as on Israel. The announcement comes amid ongoing tensions, with Trump claiming Iran is constantly attempting to kill him. The article also notes that in 2024, individuals linked to Iran were charged or convicted in the US for plots targeting American politicians, including Trump.
