According to the Reference News WeChat official account, the Iranian News TV website reported on August 14 that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is worried about facing "assassination" due to his efforts to promote normalization of relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel.

The report said that the news was disclosed in a column article on the US Politico website on the 14th, citing the recent conversation between the Saudi Crown Prince and US lawmakers.
