Secret Service dismantles 'telecommunications threat' near UN General Assembly in New York
foxnews.com ^ | September 23, 2025 | Greg Norman

The U.S. Secret Service said Tuesday that it "dismantled a network of electronic devices located throughout the New York tristate area that were used to conduct multiple telecommunications-related threats directed towards senior U.S. government officials."

The devices were concentrated within 35 miles of the ongoing United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York City, it added.

"This protective intelligence investigation led to the discovery of more than 300 co-located SIM servers and 100,000 SIM cards across multiple sites," the Secret Service said in a statement. "In addition to carrying out anonymous telephonic threats, these devices could be used to conduct a wide range of telecommunications attacks. This includes disabling cell phone towers, enabling denial of services attacks and facilitating anonymous, encrypted communication between potential threat actors and criminal enterprises. "

"While forensic examination of these devices is ongoing, early analysis indicates cellular communications between nation-state threat actors and individuals that are known to federal law enforcement," it also said.

"The potential for disruption to our country’s telecommunications posed by this network of devices cannot be overstated," U.S. Secret Service Director Sean Curran said.

Very interesting.

Probably installed by teams of American Prog Marxist Democrats and Chinese Communist Spies, ... they work well together.

Buried in the article is the responsible party: China.

I wonder why the writer didn't put that detail right up front in the article.

That seems like a very important fact that would be of interest to most readers.

It's almost like they are trying to not offend the Chinese.

The recognition of a “Palestinian” nation - with undefined or agreed to borders by
a plethora of countries at the UN would require a UN Security Council approval.

Israel might believe countries' recognition of a Palestinian nation
"seem" to be working towards economic and social isolation of Israel.

“ It’s almost like they are trying to not offend the Chinese.”

I wonder if we are just as dependent on China for our pharmaceuticals, rare earth minerals, and other essentials as the Europeans are dependent on Russia for their energy. We are so blessed to have Trump in office to try to change our dependence on foreign countries for essential.
