Iran has released a video marking American First lady Melania Trump and her son, Baron Trump, for assassination.

Tasnim News Agency, Iranian media outlet linked to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, published the video under the title “How to Kill Melania Trump” on Monday.

The video featured scene of Mrs Trump moving through New York City in her motorcade, the designer stores she shops, suggesting perfect opportunity “suitable for operations by global freedom fighters” to assassinate her.

At the end of the video, a warning was directed at the president’s youngest son, warning “This is just the beginning. Barron Trump, wait for us.” 

Before this, Iran threatened to kill Mr Trump in retaliation of its slain Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, killed in a U.S.-Israel airstrike launched at Iran in February.

The U.S. Secret Service said it was aware of an Iran-linked video targeting First Lady Melania Trump.

“The Secret Service is aware of the video and investigates anything that can be perceived as a threat toward our protectees,” Nate Herring, a lead public affairs specialist with the U.S. Secret Service’s Communications and Media Relations office, told Newsweek on Monday.

“Out of concern for operational security, we do not discuss matters of protective intelligence,” Mr Herring added.
