US EditionDHS, FBI warn large-scale events could be target for violence
- On May 23, the FBI and Department of Homeland Security issued a joint bulletin warning that large-scale events this summer are potential targets for violence across the U.S.
- This bulletin follows a fatal May 21 shooting outside a Capital Jewish Museum event in Washington, D.C., where a 31-year-old Chicago man killed two people.
- The bulletin identifies threat actors as domestic and homegrown violent extremists, some inspired by foreign terrorist groups, plus attackers not motivated by ideology who often target crowded public gatherings.
- Officials highlight risks to major events like the 250th Army anniversary parade, Independence Day celebrations, and World Pride 2025, noting attackers use tactics such as vehicle-ramming, firearms, and explosives.
- Authorities advise vigilance despite no known specific threats and caution that continued calls for violence referencing the museum shooter could raise concern for further attacks.
