FBI warns California law enforcement of possible Iranian drone threat

The FBI has alerted police departments in California to a potential threat involving drones that could be launched from vessels off the US West Coast, according to a report by ABC News.

A bulletin distributed to law enforcement agencies at the end of February stated that federal authorities had obtained information indicating that Iran had expressed interest in carrying out a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles originating from an unidentified ship near the US mainland.

The alert noted that as of early February 2026, Iran was allegedly considering such an operation targeting unspecified locations in California if the US conducted military strikes against the Islamic Republic. The document emphasized that investigators did not have further details about the timing, method, specific targets, or individuals involved.

The warning came as President Donald Trump’s administration launched an ongoing military campaign against Iran. Tehran has responded by carrying out drone attacks against targets across the Middle East.

San Andreas must therefore be a Jew, according to many on FR.

Japan flew balloons to Klamath Falls with bombs on them. The only stateside deaths in ww2 iirc.

On May 5, 1945, a Japanese balloon bomb (FUGO) exploded near Bly, Oregon—roughly 50 miles from Klamath Falls—killing five children and pregnant Sunday school teacher Elsie Mitchell. They are the only known civilian fatalities on the U.S. mainland from enemy action during WWII.

Key details of this event and the program:
Location: The incident occurred on Gearhart Mountain near Bly, Oregon.
The Incident: The group was on a picnic and found the balloon device, which detonated when they tried to move it.
The Weapon: Part of Japan’s “Project Fugo,” these paper-and-hydrogen balloons were designed to float on the jet stream to North America, carrying incendiary and anti-personnel bombs to start fires and create panic.
Aftermath: The US government, having kept the existence of the balloons secret to prevent panic, lifted the media blackout after the deaths to warn the public.
Monument: The Mitchell Monument was later erected in the

originating from an unidentified ship near the US mainland.

Contact the ship, identify it, then if it's Iranian, sink it.

And to think that I'm not getting paid for this advice.....

It takes a lot of explosives to harm a dam. Drones don’t have that sort of capacity.

Let’s have this fight. This fight to the death.

People here will have a blast getting to use their shotguns on UAV's. Gov't can offer a reward, no bag limit.

[Texas Eagle]

I’m in Commiefornica. Bring it!

[BenLurkin]

Maybe they’ll hit the Oscars.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Sounds like a false-flag alert.

[shotgun]

Time to dust off the movie 1941.

[Billthedrill]

I can’t think of much the drones could do to Kali that its own government isn’t already doing.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

“Maybe they’ll hit the Oscars.”

Ooh...that would be sweet!

[Nateman]

With any luck they will hit the Legislature in Sacramento.

[GingisK]

Somebody needs to be sure they have those GPS coordinates.
