Melania Trump Steps Back from Public Appearances Over Iran Threats

First Lady Melania Trump has withdrawn from high‑profile events, citing serious security concerns for herself and her son Barron. Reports link her decision to a video released by Iran that depicts an assassination plot against the Trump family, and to a recent gunfire incident outside the White House Correspondents' Association dinner.

White House officials have not commented on the matter, while the event’s organizers emphasized, “We will not be intimidated. We refuse to let an act of violence have the final word.” The situation highlights heightened foreign threats and personal safety worries within the administration.
