The Trump administration confirmed the memo on Friday night through a U. S. official. The move demonstrated the seriousness with which the U. S. government is taking the threat, officials said. Axios earlier reported on the memo. U. S. agencies assess that the threat against Americans in the Middle East and several other countries is at the highest level since the start of the war in February, U. S. officials said. President Donald Trump and top aides have received regular briefings on the rising threats, which go beyond the Middle East, one official said. Analysts have been examining the intelligence on the threats to U. S. officials, including ambassadors, in the past three weeks. Some material indicates Iran may have operatives in the United States, the official said. The Iranian plans also include potential targets in Europe, U. S. officials said. But another official cautioned that Iran’s ability to carry out attacks in the United States and other territories overseas is limited, and its ambitions to strike are greater than its capability to do so. The White House did not reply to a request for comment. Clayton’s office and the CIA declined to comment.
