US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant was moved from his home in Washington to a military base after receiving threats on his life from people linked to the Islamic Republic.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant was moved from his home in Washington to a military base after receiving threats on his life from people linked to the Islamic Republic.

CBS reported that the move occurred after a photo of Bessant's home was published in the Wall Street Journal.

"After the Wall Street Journal published an article that had a picture of the minister's home in the Georgetown area, and the exact location of the home could be identified through its geolocation, security concerns increased," a source familiar with the matter told CBS.

This source added that these security concerns caused the authorities to move Basant to a military base in the area.

Georgetown is home to many government officials and famous figures.
