Tasnim News Agency, a media outlet affiliated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), has published content containing claims about the movements, security arrangements, shopping locations and fashion designers of Melania Trump, the wife of US President Donald Trump. The report claims the information was obtained from “security networks” and satellite imagery. It also suggests possible methods of infiltrating Melania Trump’s security and medical teams and contaminating her clothing with toxic substances, while referring to stores she is said to frequent in New York. The content concludes with a message directed at Barron Trump, the US president’s son, stating: “This is only the beginning. Barron Trump, wait for us.” The claims made in the publication have not been independently verified. Neither Iranian nor US officials have publicly commented on the content.
