The Secret Service is investigating a video which placed a $10million bounty on Donald Trump’s son Barron.
Iranian state TV has aired footage attacking Donald Trump’s family, having previously showed off videos targeting First Lady Melania Trump.

The video targeting 20-year-old Barron shares information about where is known to travel and stay, his social media and gaming habits, and a map of his close friends.
Disturbingly titled “Where to Kill Barron Trump”, the video places a $10million bounty on the university student.

One scene shows a butler-type figure holding a hidden knife as narrator details how to infiltrate his network of friends.
Another segment names Trump Tower as a location the NYU student frequents.
It also details a location in Washington, DC, where the 20-year-old stays and the locations of his dormitory, adding that Barron is never left alone by the Secret Service.
The IRGC-backed video also noted his love of video games and use of gaming platforms like Xbox and Discord to communicate.
The US Secret Service, the agency in charge of protecting the President and his family, has been made aware of the Iranian threat.
Secret Service spokesman Nate Herring said: “The US Secret Service is aware of the video and investigates anything that can be perceived as a threat toward our protectees.
“Out of concern for operational security, we do not discuss matters of protective intelligence.”
The IRGC has publicly threatened the Trump family with billboards in Tehran and similar gory imagery.
A video placing a bounty on the First Lady published last month named her “obsession with fashion” as her “biggest weakness”.
Mrs Trump’s threat told viewers to target high-end New York luxury shops for “operations by global freedom fighters”.

The President is not the only world leader to have his family targeted by Iran.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed his son was the target of an IRGC plot, but did not give further details on the alleged assassination, including which son was targeted.
“As for my sons. Here, I think there is something quite unbelievable, yes,” he said,
“Iran targeted one of my sons. Iran tried to kill, to murder one of my sons,” Mr Netanyahu told Israel’s Channel 14, addressing reports Israel’s security agency refused to protect a rival political party.
He added: “Iran tried to murder one of my sons, and therefore this security protection is not a luxury.”
Earlier this year, the US President was secretly smuggled off Air Force One by a catering van and onto a separate plane amid an alleged Iranian attempt on his life.
The President did not directly address the alleged assassination attempt, but declared that he was “number one on the kill list for Iran”.
This covert manuever effectively turned Air Force One into a “decoy” for an attack, despite the White House’s press corps remaining on the jet.
Billboards in Iran have depicted the President’s entire family in US-flag draped caskets.
Similar displays have showed Mr Trump lying down in a coffin above with the words “We kill Trump” written in English and Persian.
