The FBI has warned California law enforcement that Iran could retaliate against American strikes by launching drones on the West Coast of the United States, including locations in California, ABC News reported.
The outlet said it had reviewed an alert showing the warning from recent days.
“We recently acquired information that as of early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United State Homeland, specifically against unspecified targets in California, in the event that the US conducted strikes against Iran,” according to the alert late February.
“We have no additional information on the timing, method, target, or perpetrators of this alleged attack,” the alert stated.
Iran has launched multiple retaliatory drone strikes at locations across the Middle East following the U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran that began 12 days ago.
