Iran Threatens Netanyahu, Denies Barron Trump Plot
Iranian security chief Mohsen Rezaei has threatened Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with severe consequences if conflict resumes, while rejecting allegations that Tehran was involved in a plot to assassinate US President Donald Trump’s youngest son, Barron Trump. The remarks come amid escalating tensions involving Iran, Israel and the United States.
Iran Threatens Netanyahu Over Renewed Conflict
Rezaei, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, warned that any renewed confrontation with Israel would enter a different and potentially more severe phase.
He said Tehran was preparing for the possibility of another conflict and used particularly aggressive language against Netanyahu, saying Iran would “send Netanyahu to hell” if hostilities resumed.
The statement represents a threat by an Iranian official and does not indicate that any specific operation against Netanyahu has been announced.
Iran Denies Barron Trump Assassination Plot
Rezaei separately denied allegations that Iran had developed a plan to assassinate Barron Trump, describing reports of such a plot as false.
The controversy intensified after Iranian state television aired a video containing information about Barron Trump’s movements, university, vehicles and Secret Service protection. The US Secret Service subsequently confirmed it was aware of the material and reviews threats involving people under its protection.
There has been no independent confirmation that an actual Iranian assassination operation targeting Barron Trump existed.
Tehran Warns US Over Economic Blockade
Rezaei also warned Washington against continuing restrictions on Iranian oil exports and maritime trade, describing the blockade as an act of war.
He threatened retaliation against American economic interests if the pressure campaign continues and said Iran was preparing for a wider confrontation.
The warnings come as Washington intensifies sanctions and economic pressure on Tehran while regional governments pursue diplomatic efforts to prevent another major escalation.
