Iranian state media aired a threatening video targeting Barron Trump, youngest son of US President Donald Trump, according to reports from the US Secret Service and CNN. The three-minute clip began with the words "Where to kill Barron Trump?!" and was followed by a montage of locations where the young Trump is known to spend time.

The narrator suggested that people were eagerly waiting to receive a $10 million reward for such an act. This video is part of Iran's ongoing campaign against Trump and his family, which includes targeting his movements and suggesting they should be killed, according to a federal law enforcement source cited by CNN.

The US-Iran conflict began in February this year, following a surprise attack in Tehran that led to the assassination of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Since then, Iranian media have repeatedly circulated content threatening the US President and his family members. Threats against Donald Trump were also made at the funeral of Iran's late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, where a performer called for Trump's death.
