Law Enforcement Heightens Surveillance Amid Sleeper Cell Concerns in US

  • U.S. law enforcement agencies are intensifying surveillance amid concerns about Iranian sleeper cells operating domestically following regional tensions.
  • These efforts follow decades of threats, including the 2019 sentencing of a Hezbollah operative plotting attacks in New York and warnings about Iran activating sleeper cells globally.
  • Experts like Barak Seener and Jonathan Gilliam emphasize difficulties identifying sleeper cells and stress preparedness, given degraded Iranian proxies and ongoing military conflicts in the Middle East.
  • Tom Homan highlighted the risk of a large-scale attack due to two million known immigration gotaways, and President Trump warned, “If they did that, they would be obliterated.”
  • Heightened surveillance and legal actions underscore persistent threats that could evolve amid Iran’s volatile posture and declining proxy capabilities, suggesting continued vigilance remains critical.
