Iran puts $10 million bounty on Trump's son's head

Iranian state television has aired a three-minute video offering a $10 million reward for the head of US President Donald Trump's 20-year-old son, Barron Trump.

The video, created using artificial intelligence, shows Barron Trump's frequent haunts and possible addresses. The video, which aired on Channel 3, also shows his route to a university in Washington.

The video claims that secret service agents are guarding Barron around the clock and posing as students at his university. Much of the video is based on staged footage created using artificial intelligence.

The video does not provide any credible evidence that Barron Trump is being assassinated. Israeli media outlets that reported on the video said the claims in it do not confirm a real threat.

This is not the first time that Iranian state media has threatened members of the Trump family. Earlier, a similar video was released dedicated to US First Lady Melania Trump, which provided information about the places she frequently visits. It was also reported that a man who planned to kill Trump's daughter Ivanka had been arrested.
