Iran's Revolutionary Guards Threaten Melania and Barron Trump in New Video
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) escalated its anti-American propaganda by releasing a provocative video targeting Melania Trump, the former U.S. First Lady, and her son Barron Trump. The video, circulated by the IRGC-linked Tasnim News Agency, shows footage of Melania in various locations around New York City, including her usual leisure spots and shopping venues, with a crosshair superimposed on her face. The video explicitly states, "We know where you are and what you do, you are now in our sights," and is titled "How to Kill Melania Trump." It even suggests potential attacks using toxic chemicals on clothing she might purchase.
The video concludes by threatening Barron Trump, 20, labeling him as the next target with the message, "This is just the beginning. Barron Trump, wait for us." This marks a significant intensification in Iran's hostile messaging, following a similar video released weeks earlier targeting former President Donald Trump himself.
American security agencies and the White House have not issued an official response to the video. However, it is noted that Melania, Barron, and Trump family residences, including the White House, Trump Tower in New York, and Mar-a-Lago estate, are under constant security protection. The video appears intended as a guide for so-called "freedom fighters" and supporters of the Islamic Republic to carry out attacks against the Trump family.
This development highlights ongoing tensions between Iran and the United States, with Iran using media to incite violence against prominent American figures.
