Iran targets Barron Trump, offers $10M bounty
The US Secret Service says it’s aware of a video aired by Iran’s state broadcaster appearing to threaten the life of Barron Trump, the youngest son of President Donald Trump.
Hard-line Iranian media have repeatedly featured content threatening the life of President Trump and his family following the assassination of its former supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and many of his family members at the outset of the US-Israeli war with Iran in February.
While there have previously been threats to first lady Melania Trump, this appears to be the first time their son Barron has been publicly singled out.
