福克斯新闻获取的一份情报备忘录显示,伊朗“大幅增加”针对美国海外人员的行动,杀害美国人的阴谋已在中东及其他国家进入“高级阶段”。
这份于周五发送给国务卿马可·鲁比奥的备忘录,距离国务院因伊朗支持的胡塞武装发动的袭击不断升级,下令非紧急政府雇员及其家属离开沙特阿拉伯仅数日。
美国官员证实了这份未加密情报备忘录的真实性,该消息最初由Axios新闻网报道。
“具体而言,我们通过多个渠道收到情报,显示伊朗已大幅增加针对美国海外人员的行动力度,”备忘录指出。

“伊朗针对美国公民的致命阴谋已在中东及其他一些国家进入高级阶段,”备忘录继续写道。
备忘录还指出,情报官员将对部分情报进行降密处理,以便向国务院人员传播和共享。
一名美国官员对福克斯新闻数字频道表示,政府持续监控和评估不断演变的安全威胁。
“谈到我们在使馆的人员配置,我们会不断评估关于安全环境的新信息,”该官员表示。“胡塞武装的袭击威胁以及针对美国官员的伊朗恐怖阴谋,正在影响我们对该地区处于RO状态(受限人员部署状态)的使馆人员配置调整的决策。”

这份关于伊朗针对美国驻中东外交官及官员的情报报告发布之际,美国总统唐纳德·特朗普正继续考虑对伊朗发动新一轮军事打击,前提是德黑兰方面未能与华盛顿达成协议。
本周早些时候,国务院回应了有关其命令非必要政府人员及其家属离开整个海湾地区的报道,澄清撤离令仅适用于沙特阿拉伯。
国务院发言人汤米·皮戈特表示,任何关于可能扩大区域撤离范围的说法都是“不准确的”。

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, according to an intelligence memo obtained by Fox News.
The memo, sent Friday to Secretary of State Marco Rubio by Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, comes just days after the State Department ordered non-emergency U.S. government employees and their family members to leave Saudi Arabia due to escalating attacks by Iran-backed Houthi rebels.
U.S. officials confirmed the authenticity of the unclassified intelligence memo, which was first reported by Axios.
“Specifically, through various channels, we have received intelligence that Iran has substantially increased efforts to target U.S. personnel,” the memo states.

“The lethal plotting efforts by the Iranians against U.S. citizens have reached advanced stages in both the Middle East and certain other countries,” the memo continues.
The memo also states that intelligence officials will work to downgrade the classification of certain intelligence so it can be disseminated and shared with State Department personnel.
A U.S. official told Fox News Digital that the government continually monitors and evaluates evolving security threats.
“When it comes to our staffing at embassies, we constantly evaluate new information about the security environment,” the official said. “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 Status in the region.”

The intelligence report on Iranian efforts to target U.S. diplomats and officials in the Middle East also comes as President Donald Trump continues to weigh another round of military strikes against Iran if Tehran does not reach an agreement with Washington.
Earlier this week, the State Department addressed reports that it directed nonessential government personnel and their dependents to leave the entire Gulf region, clarifying that the departure order applies only to Saudi Arabia.
State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott said that any claims of a potential broader regional shutdown were “inaccurate.”

“The U.S. Department of State issued an ordered departure for non-emergency U.S. government employees and their family members in Saudi Arabia,” the department said.
The State Department previously renewed its warning to Americans traveling in and through the Middle East in late September.
The latest warning came as Iran-backed Houthi rebels launched several missile attacks toward Saudi Arabia.
