Iran’s intelligence services plotted to assassinate then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo during his 2022 Paris visit.
The foiled attempt, part of a broader campaign targeting U.S. officials, offered $1M for his death, Pompeo claimed in his memoir.
This underscores Iran’s aggressive retaliation for Soleimani’s 2020 killing, with 54+ plots in Europe since 2022. The timing, amid U.S. strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, highlights Tehran’s persistent use of covert operations to project power despite its weakened military.
