The clip goes on to explain how militants could identify signs that Melania is planning to visit these locations in advance, including public bins being removed from street corners and manhole covers being welded shut, so they can “be prepared for the operation.”
It also suggests paying store staff to poison her clothing with a nerve agent, and claims that offering stylists “large sums of money” could tempt them into assisting an assassination plot.
The video ends with a direct threat to the First Lady’s son:
“This is just the beginning. Barron Trump, wait for us.”
Tasnim claimed the information was compiled from anonymous security networks and satellite images, though it appears to be drawn entirely from publicly available sources.
The wider context of the video
The video is the latest in a series of escalating threats from Iran directed at the Trump family.
Days after the statewide funeral of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed in a US-Israeli drone strike earlier this year, a billboard showing Trump lying in a coffin was installed in Islamic Revolution Square in Tehran.
