The FBI has issued a warning to law-enforcement agencies in California after intelligence raised concerns about a possible retaliatory attack linked to rising tensions between the United States and Iran. The alert was sent to local police departments to ensure they remain vigilant and prepared while authorities continue monitoring the situation.
According to reports, the warning suggested that Iranian officials had discussed the possibility of launching a surprise drone attack against targets along the California coast. The drones could potentially be launched from a vessel positioned offshore. However, the alert did not mention specific locations or provide details about when such an attack might occur.
Officials stressed that the information is based on limited intelligence and has not been confirmed. As a result, authorities said there is currently no evidence of an immediate threat to the public. The purpose of the bulletin was mainly to encourage awareness and preparedness among local agencies.
The warning follows increased tensions in the Middle East after recent military actions involving the United States and Iran. While officials say there is no confirmed danger at this time, federal and local security agencies continue to monitor developments and coordinate efforts to protect communities across California.
