Ivanka Trump was allegedly the target of an assassination plot tied to an Iran-linked suspect accused of planning attacks across Europe and North America, with authorities saying the man even had a blueprint of her Florida mansion and discussed revenge over Qa
The threat didn’t arrive as a rumor or a vague warning. Authorities say it came with details—down to the layout of Ivanka Trump’s Florida home—tied to a man accused of plotting attacks across Europe and North America and seeking revenge for the 2020 killing of Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani.
Federal authorities say the Iraqi national Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, 32, was taken into custody overseas. He was arrested in Turkey on May 15 and later extradited to the United States.
Officials allege Al-Saadi targeted Americans and Jewish targets, and that the plot included Ivanka Trump after he blamed President Donald Trump for Soleimani’s death. Soleimani, a high-ranking Iranian military commander, was killed in a U.S. drone strike ordered by President Donald Trump in 2020.
A former Iraqi embassy official, Entifadh Qanbar, alleged that Al-Saadi spoke openly about wanting revenge against the Trump family. Qanbar told the New York Post: “After Qasem was killed. he went around telling people. ‘We need to kill Ivanka to burn down the house of Trump the way he burned down our house. ’”.
Authorities claim Al-Saadi even possessed a blueprint of Ivanka Trump’s Florida home, where she lives with husband Jared Kushner and their three children. Sources also alleged Mohammad shared an image online showing the exclusive neighborhood where the couple’s $24 million mansion is located.
In the same alleged trail of threats, he posted a message in Arabic warning Americans that “neither your palaces nor the Secret Service will protect you.” The post allegedly claimed his group was in the “surveillance and analysis” stage and that revenge was only “a matter of time.”
The accusation isn’t limited to a single target. The Department of Justice has accused the suspect of being connected to multiple violent attacks. including the firebombing of a Bank of New York Mellon building in Amsterdam. a shooting near the U.S. consulate in Toronto, and attacks targeting Jewish communities in Belgium and the Netherlands.
Officials also claimed Al-Saadi has links to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, known as the IRGC, along with the Iraqi militia Kata’ib Hezbollah.
Experts have said Mohammad had close ties to Qasem and later developed a relationship with Iranian commander Esmail Qaani, who replaced Qasem after the military leader was killed in 2020.
Despite the allegations, he reportedly maintained an active social media presence, sharing photos from luxury travel destinations and military facilities. Court documents also alleged he posted emotional tributes to Qasem online while hinting at future revenge attacks against the United States.
Taken together, authorities’ claims paint a picture of an alleged plan that moved from political grievance to personal targeting, with specific details aimed at Ivanka Trump and her family—backed by alleged documentation, online threats, and ties to militant networks.
