FBI warns of threat of violence ahead of anniversary of Oct. 7 attacks

The FBI is warning ahead of the anniversary of the October 7 attacks that it “may be a motivating factor for violent extremists and hate crime perpetrators to engage in violence or threaten public safety.”

It says foreign terrorist organizations and other extremists may seek to “motivate threat actors across ideologies, including those who espouse violent antisemitism and Islamophobia, to engage in violence. Individuals inspired by this online messaging could act alone to commit an attack with little to no warning.”
