WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Department of Homeland Security has issued its most serious terrorism advisory in recent memory, warning Americans of a dramatically heightened threat environment lasting through the fall as the United States becomes directly involved in the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran.
Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem’s National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Bulletin, issued June 22, 2025, paints a stark picture of multiple converging threats that could materialize on American soil over the next three months. The unprecedented warning covers the period through September 22, 2025, and represents the Trump administration’s most explicit acknowledgment yet of how overseas conflicts can rapidly transform domestic security landscapes.
