Javad Larijani, a senior adviser to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, warned on Iranian state television that President Donald Trump “can no longer sunbathe in Mar-a-Lago,” saying a “small drone might hit him in the navel.” The remark, aired 9 July, was the latest in a series of threats Tehran figures have issued against the U.S. leader following Washington’s strike last month on three Iranian nuclear sites. Larijani’s comments come amid broader security concerns in Washington. The U.S. Secret Service, without naming Iran, said it is working around the clock with domestic and international partners in a “heightened and highly dynamic threat environment” to ensure the president’s safety. Intelligence officials have previously warned of potential Iranian sleeper-cell activity on American soil. Asked about the statement during an impromptu briefing at the White House, Trump downplayed the danger, quipping that he has not sunbathed since he was “around seven.” “I guess it’s a threat. I’m not sure it’s a threat, actually, but perhaps it is,” he added. The exchange underscores the volatility of U.S.–Iran relations even as both sides signal interest in reopening nuclear talks.
