Secret Service Investigating Video Targeting Melania Trump and Barron Trump Linked to Iran

First Lady Melania Trump and her son, Barron Trump, are reportedly depicted in an animated video titled “Where to Kill Melania.”

The Secret Service is investigating the video shared by Tasnim News Agency, an organization allegedly operated by the Iranian government.

“The Secret Service is aware of the video and investigates anything that can be perceived as a threat toward our protectees,” Secret Service spokesperson Nate Herring shared in a statement to People on Wednesday, July 29. “Out of concern for operational security, we do not discuss matters of protective intelligence.”

According to the outlet, the video depicts places Melania, 56, likes to frequent, and details instructions on how to assassinate the First Lady.

The latest alleged threat comes amid President Donald Trump‘s ongoing war with the Middle Eastern nation.

Earlier this month, the president, 80, threatened to “decimate and destroy” Iran if they acted on threats to assassinate him.

“1000 Missiles are Locked and Loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran, with thousands of more to immediately follow, should the Iranian Government act on its threat, pronounced in many corners of the Globe, to assassinate, or attempt to assassinate, the sitting President of the United States of America, in this case, ME!” he wrote on Truth Social on July 10. “Orders have already been given, and the U.S. Military is ready, willing, and able, for a one year period of time, subject to extension, to completely decimate and destroy all areas of Iran – PRAISE BE TO ALLAH!”

As Globe previously reported, Melania recently skipped the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on July 24, which was rescheduled after the original event in April was evacuated due to an alleged gunman who opened fire outside the ballroom.

According to Melania’s senior adviser Marc Beckman, she is “aware that there is an inherent risk to her safety” while serving as First Lady. However, he told People in April, “she’s confident that the Secret Service will protect her and her family. They’ve been working with her for a long time now.”
