Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was recently forced to relocate to a military base over concerns for his safety.

The move comes as Bessent has spent the last several months executing a massive economic campaign against Iran aimed at severing all of Tehran's remaining financial ties around the world.

A person familiar with the matter, who spoke to The Associated Press on Wednesday on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive details, said the relocation was partly due to media reports that helped identify Bessent's home address.
