Iran warned of sleeper-cell terror in U.S. before nuclear strikes - NBC News [View all]
NBC News has learned that Iran sent a message to President Trump at the G7 summit that if he ordered strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, then Iran could activate sleeper cells in the U.S. to launch terror attacks, according to two U.S. officials. President Trump said the U.S. strikes ‘completely obliterated’ Iran’s nuclear program. NBC News’ Peter Alexander reports. Here is a link:https://www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news/video/u-s-officials-iran-threatened-terror-attacks-inside-u-s-242058821681
And I also located a print article from BNO News. Here are some excerpts and an archived link below.
Iran warned President Donald Trump days before the strikes that it would activate sleeper-cell terror in the United States if its nuclear facilities were targeted, according to NBC News.
The communiqué was delivered through an intermediary during last week’s G7 summit in Canada, which Trump left early, according to NBC News, citing two U.S. officials and a person with direct knowledge of the message.
According to the bulletin, if Iranian leaders were to issue a religious ruling, or fatwa, calling for retaliation, it could increase the likelihood of violence from regime supporters within the U.S.
The bulletin also warned that Iranian-linked hacktivists are likely to conduct low-level cyberattacks against U.S. networks, while more sophisticated operations could be carried out by cyber actors affiliated with the Iranian government
