"ISIS-K's Threat: Potential for Moscow-Style Attack on US Border"

TL;DR Summary
A US counter-terrorism official and experts have warned that ISIS-K terrorists could exploit the chaos at the US-Mexico border to carry out an attack similar to the Moscow concert hall mass shooting. With a sharp rise in encounters with suspects on the FBI’s terror watchlist at the border, concerns about ISIS-K operatives slipping through undetected are growing. While experts believe Europe is more likely to be targeted, the porous US borders present a substantial terror risk, with fears that sympathizers already in the US may be preparing to conduct a terror strike on the group’s behalf.
