WASHINGTON, DC: President Donald Trump’s youngest son Barron Trump has come under the crosshairs of the deadly war between the US and Iran, as Tehran has reportedly aimed at Barron, placing a $10 million bounty on his head.

The tensions between Washington and Tehran have flared up again as the 60-day ceasefire plan expired last week without any peace deal, prompting Trump to change war strategy and shift to economic sanctions.

Iran turned gunpoint on Trump’s family

In a disturbing escalation of conflict with Washington, Tehran has now turned its gunpoint towards Trump’s family as Iranian state media reportedly broadcast a chilling three-minute video fantasizing about killing Barron Trump.

The clip titled “Where to kill Barron Trump” claimed to show the movements of President Trump’s 20-year-old son.

According to a translation of the video by Euronews, the video claimed that Barron is “fully monitored” while showing depictions of the dorms at New York University’s Constance Milstein & Family Global Academic Center.

The video also claimed to have uncovered Barron’s accounts on Xbox, FIFA, and Discord, along with the accounts of some of his classmates. It also named two of them.

“This is just the beginning! Barron Trump, wait for us!” the video concluded.  Multiple reports indicated that the regime placed a $10 million bounty on Barron Trump’s head.

According to Middle East news outlet Al Bawaba, the video was distributed to media outlets linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

Iran releases video ‘where to kill Melania’

This is not the first time Iran has made such direct threats against President Trump and his family members or released such videos. This video comes on the heels of post vide “how to kill Melania.”

One Iranian video in July also asked, “How to kill” First Lady Melania Trump and used similar AI imagery that it claimed was the first lady’s movements.

That same month, a billboard emerged in Tehran’s Islamic Revolution Square showing the president appearing to be dead in a coffin with the English caption, “We Kill Trump.”

Iranian-backed media also pushed out a video titled “Where to Kill Trump?!” similarly claiming to present the routes that his presidential motorcade takes when traveling to and from his residences in Florida and New York.
