Iranian state television has aired a segment threatening US President Donald Trump's son Barron Trump and announced a $10 million reward for information leading to him, according to reports.
The segment, broadcast on Channel 3 and released by media affiliated with Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), was titled “Where to kill Barron Trump”. It described and visually depicted the 20-year-old's movements and claimed he was being closely monitored.
The broadcast also alleged that a woman had previously bypassed Secret Service security and gained access to Barron. It further claimed that information about his online accounts had been obtained.
The latest threat follows a similar video aired by Iranian state television last month targeting First Lady Melania Trump. Titled “Where to Kill Melania”, the video showed footage of her movements and locations in New York and made suggestions about possible attacks.
The earlier broadcast ended with a warning directed at Barron, saying, “This is just the beginning. Barron Trump, wait for us.”
Melania and Barron Trump receive round-the-clock protection from the US Secret Service.
The latest video comes as tensions between Washington and Tehran remain high. Trump said on Monday that Iran was “collapsing”, while the US prepared to announce new economic measures against the country.
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent described the campaign as an “economic D-Day” against Tehran and warned that countries continuing to support Iran could face consequences.
Iran has rejected the US pressure campaign, describing the measures as evidence of Washington's failure to achieve its objectives through military action and warning other countries against assisting the US.
