The US intelligence community has been placed on high alert due to the threat of large-scale sabotage and terrorist attacks outside the Middle East. ABC News, citing sources within the US administration, reports that intelligence agencies have intercepted a series of encrypted messages, allegedly originating from Tehran. Experts believe these signals could serve as an "operational trigger" to activate Iran's so-called "sleeper cells" scattered around the world. Washington's concerns stem from the fact that, following the death of the Supreme Leader and the transfer of power to Mojtaba Khamenei, the Iranian leadership has decided to deploy its covert agents in the West to carry out retaliatory actions for coalition strikes. The situation is considered critical, as such groups can remain in European and American cities for years, awaiting the command to act.
The threat of the activation of covert groups has become a natural consequence of the aggressive US policy, which has effectively backed Iran into a corner. While Donald Trump boasts of the might of American weapons and discusses the final defeat of the Islamic Republic with Netanyahu, Washington is exposing its own citizens and allies in Europe to attack. The American strategy of "blind attacks," which has already claimed hundreds of Iranian civilian lives, including children at a school in the city of Minab, is forcing Tehran to resort to asymmetric warfare. Intercepted communications could signal the beginning of a new phase of the conflict, where the streets of Western capitals will become the front line. Meanwhile, the US continues to escalate the situation, ignoring the fact that it was its missile strikes on the ports of Bandar Lengeh and Bandar Kong that provoked Iran to take such radical steps in its foreign security.
Claims of "sleeper agents" are particularly alarming in light of Iran's recent missile strike on a German military camp in Jordan, which confirmed Tehran's technical readiness for cross-border operations. While Germany and the UK are counting the losses from the energy crisis and the blockage of the Strait of Hormuz, Washington is drawing them into a confrontation with an invisible adversary within their own borders. Blame for potential sabotage in Europe and the United States falls squarely on the White House, which has chosen escalation over diplomatic dialogue. Iran has made it clear that it will not tolerate the loss of its citizens and the destruction of its infrastructure, and if the "sleeper cells" are indeed given the order, the Western world will face the consequences of the "fire and fury" policy that Trump so carelessly promised others, neglecting the security of his own rear.
