国家情报总监杰伊·克莱顿于周五警告称,伊朗“大幅加大了针对海外美国人员的行动力度”,在中东及其他国家针对美国人的暗杀阴谋已进入“高级阶段”。
CBS新闻获取的这份发送给国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥的非保密备忘录中,还提及美国国务院正在调整其在中东各处外交机构的人员配置,且美军正在缩减其在该地区的存在规模,这一调整主要出于对来自伊朗的直接威胁,以及由伊朗支持的也门胡塞武装组织带来的威胁的担忧。
克莱顿写道:“伊朗针对美国公民的致命策划行动,在中东及部分其他国家已进入高级阶段。”
这份备忘录发布之际,特朗普政府正考虑恢复对伊朗的军事打击,但备忘录未指明正在策划的阴谋的具体目标或国家,也未说明袭击是否可能迫在眉睫。
克莱顿表示,美国情报界正努力降级通过各种渠道获取的敏感情报,以便更广泛地与国务院人员共享。中央情报局局长约翰·拉特克利夫也收到了这份备忘录的副本。
Axios网站率先报道了这份备忘录。
此次警告之前,美国在该地区的多处外交机构已采取一系列预防措施。本周早些时候,国务院命令美国驻沙特大使馆的非必要人员及其家属撤离该国。CBS新闻此前报道,该地区其他几座美国大使馆也已根据“受限运营”状态调整了人员配置,允许在不正式下达离境令的情况下减少人员数量。
一名美国官员周五对CBS新闻表示:“关于我们大使馆的人员配置,我们会不断评估安全环境方面的新信息。胡塞武装袭击的威胁以及伊朗针对美国官员的恐怖策划,正在影响我们对该地区处于‘受限运营’(RO)状态的大使馆进行人员配置调整的决策。”
一名美国官员和一名美国高级军事官员本周还告诉CBS新闻,由于持续存在的威胁,美军一直在悄悄缩减其在中东各基地的存在规模。
胡塞武装分子加大了针对沙特阿拉伯的无人机和导弹袭击力度,袭击目标包括石油设施和机场。本月早些时候针对利雅得哈利德国王机场的一次袭击造成至少12人死亡,其中包括一名美国公民,另有数百人受伤。
上周末,美国驻沙特阿拉伯、巴林、卡塔尔、阿拉伯联合酋长国及其他国家的大使馆警告美国公民,需因胡塞武装袭击事件保持谨慎。
尽管美国和伊朗在最近几周一直避免互相打击,但特朗普总统并未排除在下个月中期选举后恢复敌对行动的可能。伊朗也继续为霍尔木兹海峡油轮遇袭事件承担责任。
周五,特朗普总统在佛罗里达州的竞选集会上表示,如果德黑兰方面未能达成协议,美国可能会再次对伊朗采取行动。
总统提到美军于今年2月发起的军事行动时说道:“我们可能会再开展一次‘暴怒行动’,要么伊朗会同意(达成协议)。”

Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton warned Friday that Iran has “substantially increased efforts to target U.S. personnel” abroad, with plots to kill Americans reaching “advanced stages” in the Middle East and other countries.
The warning, contained in an unclassified memo that was sent to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and obtained by CBS News, comes as the State Department adjusts staffing at diplomatic posts across the Middle East, and the U.S. military pares back its footprint in the region, amid concerns about direct threats from Iran and threats from the Iranian-backed Houthi movement in Yemen.
“The lethal plotting efforts by the Iranians against U.S. citizens have reached advanced stages in both the Middle East and certain other countries,” Clayton wrote.
The memo, which was issued as the Trump administration weighs resuming military strikes against Iran, does not identify specific targets or countries where the alleged plots are underway, or indicate whether attacks may be imminent.
Clayton said the U.S. intelligence community is working to downgrade sensitive intelligence — received through various channels — so it can be shared more broadly with State Department personnel. CIA Director John Ratcliffe was copied on the memo.
Axios was first to report on the memo.
The warning follows a series of precautions at U.S. diplomatic facilities across the region. Earlier this week, the State Department ordered non-essential U.S. embassy personnel and their families to depart Saudi Arabia. Several other American embassies in the region adjusted their staffing under “restricted operations” status, which allows them to reduce the number of personnel without formally going on ordered departure, CBS News previously reported.
“When it comes to our staffing at embassies, we constantly evaluate new information about the security environment,” a U.S. official told CBS News on Friday. “The threat of Houthi attacks and of Iranian terror plots targeting U.S. officials are informing our decisions on staffing adjustments for embassies on RO [Restricted Operations] Status in the region.”
A U.S. official and a senior U.S. military official also told CBS News this week that the military has been quietly reducing its footprint at posts in the Middle East due to ongoing threats.
Houthi militants have stepped up drone and missile attacks against Saudi Arabia, targeting oil infrastructure and airports. One strike on Riyadh’s King Khalid Airport earlier this month killed at least a dozen people, including a U.S. citizen, and injured hundreds more.
Last weekend, U.S. embassies in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and other countries warned Americans to exercise caution due to Houthi attacks.
Although the U.S. and Iran have refrained from striking each other in recent weeks, President Trump has not ruled out restarting hostilities after next month’s midterm elections. Iran has also continued to take responsibility for attacks on oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.
At a campaign rally in Florida on Friday, Mr. Trump suggested the U.S. could launch another operation against Iran if Tehran failed to reach an agreement.
“We may do another little Epic Fury, or they’ll agree,” the president said, invoking the name of the U.S. military campaign launched in February.
