AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
Major cities across the United States have ramped up security efforts in case of potential sleeper cells or cyberattacks from Iran, and they are getting the FBI’s assistance.
The FBI is reportedly shifting resources in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Philadelphia towards Iran and domestic threats and away from immigration enforcement.
The agency has also told its field offices to be in close communication with the Department of Defense and the National Guard, too, because military sites could be targets as well.
The FBI did not comment on the operational decisions.
