At the end of last month, the FBI issued a confidential security bulletin to lawâenforcement agencies across the United States, warning that Tehran could retaliate for any U.S. military strikes on Iran by launching surprise drone attacks in California. The alert, disseminated through the multiâagency Los Angeles Joint Regional Intelligence Center (LJRIC), underscores the growing concern over asymmetric threats posed by stateâbacked nonâtraditional armed groups.
According to a Reutersâsourced report, the FBIâs bulletin specifically cautions that Iranian drones could be deployed from the Persian Gulf, targeting critical infrastructure, commercial hubs, and densely populated areas on the West Coast. While the exact capabilities and number of drones remain classified, analysts suggest that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corpsâ Aerospace Force has been steadily modernizing its unmanned systems.
The warning comes amid escalating tensions between the United States and Iran, following a series of U.S. drone strikes in Iranian territory. Tehranâs leadership has repeatedly signaled that it will not hesitate to respond, citing the need to protect its national security interests.
Lawâenforcement agencies in California, along with federal partners, are now on high alert. The FBIâs guidance calls for enhanced surveillance of drone activity, rapid incident response protocols, and coordination with the Department of Homeland Securityâs CounterâDrone Task Force.
