Amid the ongoing protests in Iran, US President Donald Trump has been threatened with death. Let us tell you that Iran’s government TV channel has threatened Trump through a message. For this, the TV channel showed the image of Trump’s election rally held in Butler, Pennsylvania in July 2024, where there was an attempt to shoot at Trump. A message was written on the screen along with the image: This time this bullet will not miss.

Experts say that this is the most open and aggressive warning ever given directly to the US President by Iran. This incident has come to light at a time when the Donald Trump administration is considering options for military action against Iran. Iranian officials have alleged that the US wants to use the ongoing internal unrest in the country as a pretext for possible military intervention.

US military activities increased

Donald Trump has been threatened at a time when America has started redeploying its forces in the Middle East. According to reports, movement of troops has been seen from one of America’s largest military bases located in the area. Due to this, it is feared that if America attacks, Iran will not back down from retaliating. This concern increased further when a senior Tehran official mentioned the retaliatory attack on Al Udeid airbase outside Doha, Qatar in June 2025.

Trump’s warning to Iran

Donald Trump said in an interview with CBS News on Tuesday (January 13, 2026) that if Iran intensifies its action against the protesters, America will give a strong and forceful response. Referring to the news of the execution, Trump said, ‘If they do something like this, we will take strong action’.

Iran is struggling with domestic unrest and economic crisis

The regime led by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is already grappling with regional conflicts, domestic opposition and economic pressures. Protests broke out in December when the value of the Iranian rial hit a record low. Apart from this, the sanctions imposed by America and Western countries have worsened the situation.

Figures from human rights organizations

According to Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA), more than 2,400 protesters have been killed so far. Of these, 147 people were associated with the government or security forces. Apart from this, more than 18,400 people have been detained so far.
