“Let’s all pray that God will intervene and stop these attacks from happening.” Admin
The National Counterterrorism Center issued a sobering memo Friday warning that U.S.-designated terrorist group al-Qaida and its Yemen-based affiliate, al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, remain intent on striking America.
In a nationwide advisory distributed to law enforcement, the agency said the groups are seeking to exploit ongoing global conflicts and U.S. involvement overseas.
Al-Qaida and al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula “are likely seeking to leverage their media publications and global conflicts, particularly where there is U.S. support or military involvement, to inspire potential attackers,” the memo read.
The National Counterterrorism Center, created in 2004 after the 9/11 attacks, urged government personnel to heighten vigilance.
Officials were told not to share travel plans online, to avoid carrying badges or IDs outside of work, and to stay alert for surveillance.
The memo also highlighted soft targets, including sporting events and concerts, urging local authorities to deploy visible law enforcement and conduct pre-event security briefings.
The agency stressed that the intelligence was being shared to equip local agencies with the tools to disrupt potential attacks.
