Over the weekend, U.S. President Donald Trump bombed three major Iranian nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. The move came amid rising tensions following an earlier Israeli missile strike and warnings from Iran that any U.S. intervention would provoke a broader conflict. In the days leading up to the strikes, Iranian officials reportedly threatened sleeper-cell terror attacks within America if Trump acted.

Sleeper agents, described as covert operatives living inconspicuously in the U.S., are believed to have entered the country in large numbers. A leaked memo from Customs and Border Protection revealed that thousands of Iranian nationals had crossed illegally, with concerns that many more entered undetected. Officials warn these individuals could be activated for terror missions, although no concrete plots have yet been uncovered.

Trump allegedly learned of the sleeper-cell threat during the recent G7 summit in Canada, prompting his swift departure from the event. Following the strike, he took to Truth Social to warn that any Iranian retaliation would be met with “force far greater” than the initial bombing. This firm stance has put U.S. security services on high alert.

The Department of Homeland Security has issued statements warning of an elevated threat environment within the U.S. They referenced a religious directive from Iranian leaders calling for violent retaliation, raising the likelihood of terror attacks or cyberwarfare. Government officials tied to past U.S. actions against Iran are considered high-risk targets.

With Iran vowing to respond, and Russia already backing Tehran, fears of a wider international conflict are mounting. As domestic security tightens and diplomatic tensions rise, the global community watches closely to see whether this marks the beginning of a larger war or a new phase in Middle Eastern power struggles.
