Six suspected terrorists with ISIS ties arrested in sting operation in New York, Los Angeles and Philadelphia
SUMMARY
Over the past several days, in a coordinated effort spanning Los Angeles, New York, and Philadelphia, six nationals of Tajikistan suspected of having ties to ISIS were apprehended by ICE agents. The arrests came after the FBI issued warnings about potential threats. One of the suspects, intercepted through a wiretap, was heard discussing plans involving bombs. FBI Director Chris Wray expressed concerns about possible attacks, citing recent activities by ISIS-K. Heightened scrutiny at the southern border followed reports of illegal aliens with terror links slipping through. Despite new policies implemented by the Biden administration to reduce illegal crossings, over 10,000 such entries were recorded over the weekend, predominantly in San Diego, the busiest crossing point.
