Still from video aired by Iranian mediaThe US Secret Service has acknowledged being aware of a video being broadcast by Iranian state media that appeared to threaten the life of Barron Trump. They have stated that they are investigating the footage as a potential threat to a protected person.The nearly three-minute video, aired over the weekend by Iran’s state broadcaster IRIB, opened with an English-language graphic asking, “Where to kill Barron Trump?” It featured images and references to places where the 20-year-old is publicly known to spend time, including New York’s Trump Tower and locations associated with his studies at New York University.It further states that it uncovered Barron’s accounts for video games and Discord, as well as those of his classmates, naming two of them.The video ended with a reference to a reported $10 million reward and a warning directed at Barron. The footage was also circulated by Iranian media outlets and affiliated social media accounts.A Secret Service spokesperson told CNN that the agency was aware of the video and investigates “anything that can be perceived as a threat” toward people under its protection. The agency declined to provide further details, citing operational security and the sensitivity of protective intelligence.The video appears to be part of a wider campaign of threats against the Trump family in Iranian hardline media following the death of former Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei during the US-Israeli war with Iran.A US federal law enforcement source told CNN that previous videos had also targeted President Trump and other members of his family, sometimes including references to their movements and locations.Threats against Trump have intensified since the conflict began. Trump has previously said he was aware of Iranian efforts to target him, while US officials have taken additional precautions around his travel and security.Iranian media had earlier circulated similar material targeting First Lady Melania Trump, including content purporting to identify places she visits and details about her movements.
