Iran's ayatollah issues NEW THREATS to US

Iran's leadership has directed its military to expand targeting against U.S. and Israeli assets, Madeleine Rivera reports on Fox & Friends Weekend, bringing a military warning into the network's pre-election coverage.

Reporting from Washington, Rivera describes threats issued online by Iran's supreme leader. The segment then cuts to archival footage of Donald Trump discussing talks with Iran and an audio clip in which he says, "Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, and they won't have a nuclear weapon."

Rivera also reports that non-emergency U.S. government workers have been ordered to evacuate Saudi Arabia because of attacks by Houthi rebels. That personnel order gives the short bulletin a practical consequence beyond the exchange of warnings.

The upload reached roughly 733,000 views in thirteen hours, well above the channel's usual opening pace for Shorts. Separate Fox News clips about Iran's updated target list and the possibility of escalation also drew unusually brisk viewing, though this report attracted the largest audience of the three.

Those Iran reports follow the channel's earlier coverage of Trump's military options and JD Vance's rejection of a "forever war." This segment shifts the focus to Iran's directives and the reported movement of U.S. personnel.
