DHS and FBI warn about potential lone wolf attacks ahead of July 4 celebrations
- The FBI and DHS issued a joint warning on July 4, 2025, about lone wolf attacks threatening Independence Day events in New York City and San Francisco.
- The alert follows recent violence, such as the New Year's Day ISIS vehicle attack in New Orleans and a Molotov cocktail assault in Boulder, amid tensions from the Israel-Hamas conflict.
- Authorities coordinated across levels activated shutdowns of bridges, roads, and public transit while deploying hundreds of NYPD officers and federal partners to enhance security and monitor drones.
- NYPD Commissioner Tisch highlighted that dangers from armed drones are increasing and stressed the importance of public alertness through initiatives like the "If You See Something, Say Something" campaign.
- These proactive measures aim to deter attacks, maintain public safety, and preserve the spirit of unity during July 4 celebrations despite no specific credible threats identified.
