The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has expressed growing concerns about the possibility of a coordinated terrorist attack within the United States in light of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas. FBI Director Christopher Wray warned that the threat level has escalated significantly to an “elevated” status due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. The warning comes just weeks after the deadly attack on a concert hall in Russia, which killed 144 people. Wray highlighted the potential for individuals or small radicalized groups to be influenced by the events in the Middle East and carry out attacks on US soil. The FBI’s concerns stem from the heightened threat environment the country currently faces, including threats from China, Russia, Iran, and both foreign and domestic terrorist organizations.
