The Secretary of Homeland #Security has issued a new National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Bulletin regarding the current heightened threat environment across the 🇺🇸 United States.
The Homeland continues to face a diverse and challenging threat environment leading up to and following the 20th Anniversary of the September 11, 2001 (#911) attacks as well religious holidays we assess could serve as a catalyst for acts of targeted violence.
These #threats include those posed by domestic terrorists, individuals and groups engaged in grievance-based #violence, and those inspired or motivated by foreign #terrorists and other malign foreign influences. These actors are increasingly exploiting #online forums to influence and spread violent extremist narratives and promote violent activity. Such threats are also exacerbated by impacts of the ongoing global #pandemic, including grievances over public #health safety measures and perceived #government restrictions.
