What does the Tasnim agency video show?
The video highlights Melania Trump's "love of fashion" as her biggest weakness while showing pictures of her in her motorcade and highlighting her favourite designer stores. In the video, the narrator suggests a potential poisoning scheme that can be carried out by "freedom fighters" with access to areas the First Lady often visits.The video claimed these places could be used by 'global freedom fighters' and suggested that someone could poison clothes bought by the First Lady using a nerve agent. When the video begins, the narrator says that "the documents used in this video are the result of extracting information from several anonymous security networks and satellite images," although most of the information contained is about Melania's habits, mostly public information.

At the end of the video it also stated: "Barron, wait for us." It comes as Barron Trump was also featured in a disturbing display on a billboard in Iran with Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka and Melania.
'Get ready to die'
Billboards have also appeared on bridges and structures throughout Tehran, Iran, calling for the deaths of Mr Trump and his family members. One featured images of his children, Ivanka and Barron, alongside his wife.All three were shown with their eyes closed, with the word "KILLED" in red across the top. It added: "Hey, Terrorist! Get ready to die." Another billboard from this week displayed a red MAGA hat alongside what appears to be an illustration of Mr Trump with blood pouring from his head.
A third video shows AI-generated images of US President Donald Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Secretary of State Marco Rubio lying in a pool of blood.
Trump-Netanyahu meeting scheduled today
The video surfaced ahead of Trump's meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday. According to the Financial Times, citing a source familiar with the plans, the Israeli prime minister is traveling to Washington in "listening mode," even though he wants to expand military operations against Iran. The source said, "Netanyahu wants it to be about more than just Hormuz."The source also said Netanyahu plans to raise concerns over Turkey's reported interest in buying F-35 fighter jets from the US, arguing that such a sale could reduce Israel's military edge in the region.
A White House official told the Financial Times that Trump and Netanyahu are expected to discuss the conflict with Iran, progress under the Trilateral Framework in Lebanon, and efforts to expand the Abraham Accords.
And earlier this month Trump posted on his social media website that Iran had made threats “to assassinate, or attempt to assassinate” him, adding that 1,000 “missiles are Locked and Loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran, with thousands more to immediately follow, should the Iranian Government act on its threat.”
Hours later Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, said that Iranians would continue to avenge the killing of his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The elder Khamenei has been mourned in funeral events throughout Iran earlier this month. His son said retaliation “is the will of our nation and must certainly be carried out.”
