President Trump took a secret flight out of Turkey last month after Israel warned the U.S.
Of an Iranian threat of attack.
NPR's Daniel Estrin reports that's according to a person familiar with the matter.
Israel had intelligence of a possible threat of Iranian missiles toward Air Force One and shared
that intelligence with the U.S., according to a person briefed on the matter, not authorized to speak publicly.
The warning prompted Trump to be secretly flown out of Turkey on a different plane.
Air Force One flew separately.
That news was first reported by the Washington Post.
When asked about it late Tuesday, Trump said he was following instructions from the Secret Service.
This comes amid rising tensions between the U.S.
And Iran, with no progress toward reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
