Iranian state media report allegedly targets Barron Trump

Iranian state television Channel 3 and media affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) have allegedly broadcast a video targeting Barron Trump, the 20-year-old son of Donald Trump. The video, titled "Where and how should we kill Barron Trump?," claims to offer a $10 million bounty for his assassination. Reports indicate the footage tracks the younger Trump’s movements, identifying locations such as his university campus and Trump Tower. It also purportedly reveals the locations of Secret Service security teams and alleges that his private digital communications via Xbox, Discord, and FIFA have been compromised.

While the video claims a female associate successfully bypassed Secret Service protection to meet with Barron Trump and transmit information to the producers, these claims remain unverified. The Jerusalem Post noted it could not independently confirm the original video on official Channel 3 platforms, though it has been disseminated by Iranian opposition sites. The video also lists personal details, including the names of classmates Liam Carter and Bo Lunden. Euronews has stated that the claims regarding the bounty and security breaches have not been independently verified, and there is no confirmed evidence that the threats are actionable or state-sanctioned beyond the media dissemination.
