Federal authorities warned California law enforcement that Iran reportedly aspired to launch a surprise drone attack against targets in the state from a vessel at sea.
The intelligence suggests the threat emerged in early February as Iran prepared for potential U.S. and Israeli military strikes.
Officials currently lack specific details regarding the exact timing, targets, or perpetrators of the alleged plot, describing the information as “cautionary.”
Gov. Gavin Newsom said at a news conference that he’s aware of the apparent threat of Iranian drone strikes on California.
“Drone issues have always been top of mind,” Newsom said.
“As it relates to drone strikes, we have been aware of that information,” he said. “We have been working collaboratively through the (operations center), which we established right after the war began — the State Operations Center. Working with the Office of Emergency Services, but also working locally to make sure we transmit any information that we have received.”
LiveNOW’s Andy Mac spoke about the threat with retired police sergeant Ashton Packe.
