Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was moved to an undisclosed military base after receiving threats from Iran, CBS News reported.
The relocation was described as a security precaution, but officials did not provide further details about the nature of the threats or the specific location of the base.
The report was filed by CBS correspondents Charlie D'Agata and Ed O'Keefe, who said the move underscores heightened concerns for the safety of senior U.S. officials.
Iran has a history of issuing hostile statements toward U.S. government representatives, a pattern that has occasionally prompted heightened security measures.
Neither the Treasury Department nor other U.S. agencies have released additional comments, and the situation remains under review.
