The FBI is ramping up counterterrorism efforts following recent U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites and Iran’s retaliatory attack on a U.S. base in Qatar.

A memo sent to FBI field offices directs a renewed focus on terror threats, including domestic risks, aligning with an earlier internal report prioritizing actions against Iran and its proxies.

This shift comes amid internal concerns over agents being diverted from counterterrorism to immigration enforcement.

The FBI said it routinely reallocates resources based on evolving national security threats, CBS News has reported.

Meanwhile, President Trump continues to emphasize immigration crackdowns as a central policy.
