President Trump on Wednesday said that Iran may be planning a "sneak attack" on American troops in Iraq. He warned that, should this come to pass, it will come with a "heavy price" for Iran.

The president's warning on Twitter comes amid continued tensions with Iran over military confrontations beginning in January – most recently the Soleimani birthday attack in which two American troops and one British soldier were killed.
