A New York Post report unveiled on Friday that Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood al-Saadi allegedly had planned her in a revenge ploy for a 2020 American drone strike that killed Qasem Soleimani, an Iranian military commander.
The military commander was reportedly the mentor of al-Saadi, who vowed to seek revenge against the Trump family for his death.
Sources told the Post that al-Saadi received a blueprint of Ivanka’s home and had allegedly posted threats online that referenced surveillance of the property.
Details of the alleged assassination plans came after the U.S. Justice Department announced al-Ssaadi’s arrest. The suspect was was hit with six terrorism related offences “for his activities as an operative of Kata’ib Hizballah and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, including his involvement in nearly 20 attacks and attempted attacks throughout Europe and the United States.”
The DOJ stated the assaults included arson, bombings, stabbings and planned attacks against synagogues and U.S.-linked facilities.
Suspect arrested earlier this month
Al-Saadi was arrested in Turkey earlier this month and extradited to the U.S., prosecutors said. He faces federal terrorism-related charges in New York.
The DOJ said al-Saadi was the mastermind behind attacks on American and Jewish targets , which include the firebombing of the Bank of New York Mellon in Amsterdam in March, the stabbings of two Jewish victims in London last month, and a shooting at the U.S. consulate building in Toronto in March.
Al-Saadi also allegedly organized and claimed responsibility for a bombing of a synagogue in Liege, Belgium, the arson of a temple in Rotterdam in March, and a number of foiled counter-attacks in the U.S. in response to the Iran War, the DOJ noted.
Upon marrying Jared Kushner in 2009, Ivanka converted to Orthodox Judaism. She hasn’t publicly commented on the alleged assassination plot.
Federal officials haven’t officially confirmed whether specific charges linked to the plot against Ivanka have been filed, per the Post.
