The FBI Just Issued This Warning to Police Departments in California: Possible Drone Attacks
Townhall ^ | 03/11/26 | Dmitri Bolt

The FBI has reportedly warned police departments across California that Iran could attempt to retaliate against the United States for Operation Epic Fury by launching attack drones targeting the state.

Iran does not have the capability to launch drones from the Middle East that could reach the U.S. West Coast. However, the FBI reportedly warned that unidentified vessels operating off the California coast could potentially be used to launch attack drones.

“We recently acquired information that as of early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United States Homeland, specifically against unspecified targets in California, in the event that the US conducted strikes against Iran,” an alert distributed at the end of February read. “We have no additional information on the timing, method, target, or perpetrators of this alleged attack.”

This comes as concerns continue to grow over the potential activation of Iranian sleeper cells inside the United States. Since the start of Operation Epic Fury, two separate Islamist-inspired terror attacks have occurred, though any direct connection to the Iranian regime remains unclear.

🚨 BREAKING: FBI warned police departments in California within recent days that Iran may launch ATTACK DRONES at west coast targets, per ABC

Iran intended to launch the drones from a vessel off the US coast, per an FBI memo

But Democrats have CLOSED THE COAST GUARD along with much of the rest of DHS. Insane.

If I were a democrat in California I wouldn’t worry about this.

Iran means you no harm. Iranian religious scholars are your friends.

Democrats obviously don’t care about this because they refuse to fund Homeland Security.

I suspect Sacramento area will be the primary target.
There is a sizable radical Iranian community there that I saw building 20 years ago.

Not to worry.

Islam is the religion of peace (or is that pieces)?

using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United States

Good mission for the WESTPAC VP squadrons.

Locate, identify and track.

Police departments? I heard it was drones launching from ships. So how about some target sighted, target sunk messages to comsubpac.

That would be awful and they shouldn’t do it. But if they do, would they like some specific coordinates?

“The FBI Just Issued…”

For information from early 02-2026.

Reads more like Kalifornee is wanting more money for its ngo’s.
