Iran's Encrypted Messages: High Alert for Sleeper Cells

0:00On March 9, U.S. intelligence has picked up encrypted messages from Iran that might signal orders to sleeper cells around the world. A federal alert went out to law enforcement, warning of these transmissions as a possible trigger for hidden operatives. The signals showed up right after Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Kaminay, all for Erid, died on February 28 in a joint U.S. and Israeli strike. Officials traced the messages to Iran and noted they were sent to several countries using special codes for secret contacts. Law enforcement is on high alert, but stresses there's no specific threat tied to any one spot. The focus is on watching for odd radio signals that could mean trouble from these covert networks. Experts say the messages likely aim to activate agents placed in western nations for potential revenge strikes. While the exact words remain unclear, the timing has everyone paying close attention. This development keeps tensions high after the strikes, as agencies ramp up vigilance to stay ahead of any moves.
