FBI foils left-wing extremist bomb plot in Los Angeles ahead of New Year
The Federal Bureau of Investigation disrupted plans by the radical group Turtle Island Liberation Front to carry out a series of bombings in Los Angeles and Orange County on New Year's Eve. This is significant as it prevented potentially large-scale violent attacks.

According to U.S. authorities, the group held far-left and pro-Palestinian views. Four individuals involved in organizing the attacks were arrested during the operation.
These developments and ensuing investigations will help prevent similar threats in the future and strengthen counterterrorism efforts in the region.
