United States President, Donald Trump has raised alarm that Iran is planning to use this period of coronavirus pandemic to attack the US troops in Iraq and it’s facilities.

Truom disclosed this on Wednesday in a tweet on his verified Twitter handle.

He tweeted, “Upon information and belief, Iran or its proxies are planning a sneak attack on U.S. troops and/or assets in Iraq. If this happens, Iran will pay a very heavy price, indeed!”

US and Iran renewed their battle late last year after the killing of Iranian military head, Qoseem Suleimani in Iraq.
