Audio Threat Warns Against Targeting Congress In Retaliation For Soleimani’s Assassination
Many air traffic controllers in New York City heard a terrifying threat Monday related to the martyrdom of the Iranian team, Qassem Soleimani, and the congressional vote to elect President-elect Joe Biden.
And in the video, published by the US network “CBS”, a threat said: “On Wednesday we will fly an urban plane to the Capitol. We will avenge Soleimani.”
The threat concerns the response to the assassination of Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani, who was the target of a US raid on January 3 last year.
The network reported, citing sources, that the Pentagon and other security agencies were informed on Tuesday of the audio recording.
According to the American Network, “the person who sent the recording is anonymous. Although the FBI believes that the warning of an attack is not serious, it is being investigated as a violation of flight frequencies.”
The office indicated that “all threats of violence against public security are taken very seriously.”
The sources stated that they believed that “the threat aims to imply that the Capitol will be hit the same day that Congress is scheduled to count the results of the electoral college, which certify the victory of Biden with 306 votes compared to 232 for Donald Trump” .
Experts said the penetration of air frequencies raises concern as it can affect the instructions pilots receive on how and where planes fly.
