Iranian State TV Threatens Donald Trump’s Son with Death and Reveals Security Details

Iranian state television broadcast a threatening video targeting Barron Trump, the 20-year-old son of former U.S. President Donald Trump. The video, titled "Where and How Barron Trump Should Be Killed," claimed to have monitored his movements in full, including the university he attends, his escort vehicles, and the locations of his secret service agents. It also alleged a $10 million bounty was offered for him, though this claim has not been independently verified.

This broadcast follows a similar July video by the Tasnim news agency, affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which exposed security vulnerabilities related to Melania Trump in New York. In May, the New York Post reported on a purported plot to harm Ivanka Trump. Iranian state media have also issued direct threats against Donald Trump himself, including a July display in Tehran’s Islamic Revolution Square showing Trump in a coffin with the English caption "We Will Kill Trump."

The threats are linked to the Islamic concept of "Qisas," which mandates retaliation for the killing of the Islamic Republic’s leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was mentioned in the threats as having died in a joint Israeli-American attack. Iranian commentators on state TV emphasized that Qisas is an inalienable right of the Islamic Republic and vowed to pursue those responsible without regard for international legal barriers. One analyst warned that failure to exact revenge on Trump would force Iranian leaders to live in hiding.

Donald Trump has previously warned that any assassination attempt on him would provoke a severe U.S. response. On January 20, he stated that such an attempt would lead to the destruction of the entire Iranian state and the eradication of the Islamic Republic from the earth.
