Illinois State Police is reminding the public to stay vigilant during the holiday season as the Israel-Hamas war continues. The ISP says foreign terrorist media historically has called for violence during the winter holiday season. This year, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and FBI expect the call for violence to be heightened. Terrorists may look to holiday events as potential targets to instigate violence, particularly those of the Jewish, Muslim, and Christian faiths. During the holiday season, the public should be prepared and report suspicious behavior to their local law enforcement agency or call 911 depending on the level of the threat.
