California on High Alert for Potential Iranian Drone Threats Amid Ongoing Iran War

California officials, including Governor Gavin Newsom, are responding to recent warnings from the FBI about the possibility of Iranian drone attacks targeting the state. An FBI memo indicated that Iran may aspire to launch retaliatory drone strikes from offshore vessels, raising concerns among local law enforcement and residents. While some officials have downplayed the immediate risk, stating there is no credible threat at the moment, security measures have been heightened, particularly in sensitive areas like the Oscars, which is being monitored closely. Experts note that Iranian drone capabilities pose a legitimate threat to the US West Coast, leaving many in the region on edge as tensions escalate in the Middle East.
