Summary
$10 million was cited in an Iranian state TV broadcast that purported to track Barron Trump, showing his university, escort vehicles and Secret Service posts while claiming his movements were “fully monitored.”
The IRGC-linked video, titled “Where and how should we kill Barron Trump?”, also alleged someone penetrated his security and passed information to its makers, but those claims could not be independently verified.
The broadcast extends a pattern of Iranian media threats: a July video mapped Melania Trump’s movements, another outlined Donald Trump’s motorcade routes, and the Secret Service said it was reviewing the footage.
Iranian commentators have tied such threats to retaliation for the 2020 US killing of Qassem Soleimani and the February death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, while Trump has warned any attack would trigger a devastating US response.
