The FBI recently issued a memo warning about a possible Iranian drone attack off California‘s coast. But law enforcement officials and homeland security experts are quickly walking back the immediate threat level, saying there is nothing specific or actionable right now.
The memo, distributed by the FBI’s Los Angeles office to local law enforcement last week, became public on Wednesday. It outlined vague but concerning details, saying the FBI had received “unverified” information early last month that Iran “allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United States Homeland.”
