Iran denied rumors that it had planned to assassinate Donald Trump's youngest son, Barron Trump, calling the reports 'falsehoods.' According to Fox News on the 27th (local time), Mohsen Rezaei, the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, dismissed the media reports that claimed there was an assassination plan targeting Barron Trump during an interview with Al Manar TV in Lebanon. Earlier, CNN reported on the 24th that Iran's state-run IRIB had aired a three-minute video targeting Barron Trump on the weekend. The video began with a screen displaying the text 'Where to kill Barron Trump?' and then showed locations where Barron is known to frequently stay, such as the Trump Tower in New York. The video's end reportedly included content suggesting that Barron is under surveillance and that a reward of $10 million (approximately 137 billion won) is being offered for his life. Following the video's release, suspicions arose that Iran had planned an assassination of Barron Trump. The U.S. Secret Service has been investigating the matter.
