US judge accuses Iranian Revolutionary Guards member of trying to assassinate John Bolton

On Wednesday, the US Department of Justice confirmed the revelation of an Iranian plot to assassinate former White House National Security Adviser John Bolton, and announced the indictment of a member of the Revolutionary Guards.

The Justice Department said Shahram Borsafi, 45, also known as Mehdi Rezaei, offered to pay $300,000 to people in the United States to kill Bolton, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, likely in retaliation for the U.S. assassination of senior IRGC commander Qassem Soleimani in January 2020. .
