Errol Musk was reported saying to The U.S. Sun, “It’s a hit job, a shadow government-sponsored opening salvo on Elon.”

When asked if he was afraid of the “shadow government” assassinating his son, his response was affirmative.

In a previous incident, Elon Musk hinted at dying “under mysterious circumstances” following a disagreement with Russia’s space chief over SpaceX supplying Starlink terminals to Ukrainian soldiers.

The billionaire CEO of Tesla Inc. and SpaceX has had visible security concerns, particularly highlighted during the controversy surrounding the tracking of his private jet in December last year.
