US EditionFBI arrests 4 alleged members of 'far-left' group accused of plotting New Year’s Eve bombings
Four alleged members of the Turtle Island Liberation Front were charged with conspiracy and possession of unregistered explosives after plotting coordinated bombings targeting five locations in Southern California.
- On Monday, Dec. 15, 2025, the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation said four people were arrested in connection with a suspected plot to carry out coordinated New Year’s Eve bombings in Los Angeles and Orange counties, California.
- Framing itself online around decolonisation, the LA chapter of TILF described as a far-left, pro‑Palestine, anti‑government, and anti‑capitalist movement, with 'Free Turtle Island' rhetoric.
- Called 'Operation Midnight Sun,' the plan involved members acquiring bomb‑making materials, traveling to the Mojave Desert, and testing devices on Dec. 12, 2025, court documents show.
- U.S. federal prosecutors charged the four defendants with conspiracy and possession of destructive devices, arrested in Lucerne Valley, while a fifth person was detained in New Orleans; all face court Monday.
- The disruption positions federal prosecutors to pursue further action after officials said the plot targeted at least five 'Amazon‑type logistics centers' in Los Angeles and Orange counties, described as 'massive and horrific' by the DOJ.
