The FBI has issued a chilling warning to Americans as fears grow Iran will strike the US with terrorist proxies.
FBI counterterrorism and counterintelligence teams are on elevated alert across the country, according to an agency official.
Terrorism fears are surging in the wake of Donald Trump’s military strikes on Iran, as reports circulate that the Islamic regime’s supreme leader was killed.
Iran uses a network of proxy militant groups around the globe to carry out violent attacks against Western countries.
Under orders from the president, the US military launched Tomahawk missiles on Iran in a joint operation with Israel, deploying Air Force and Navy jets. Iran responded to the aggression by launching ‘revenge strikes’ on US military bases across the Middle East.
Tehran has struck the Fifth Fleet service center in Manama, Bahrain, and claims to have hit bases across the region including in Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.
The president warned that US troops could lose their lives, adding that ‘we may have casualties.’ Casualties from Iran’s retaliatory strikes on US bases remain unclear.
