US warning against use by extremists of Covid-19 restrictions
Terrorist groups may return to their usual business: staging attacks, especially inside the United States.
This comes as the current
wave of the Covid-19 pandemic approaches its end and some countries are
unlocking.
This is why Washington is
advising governments around the world against the use by terrorist groups of
the reduction in Covid-19 restrictions.
American
warning
The US Department of
Homeland Security issued a national warning on the same issue. It said
extremists can use the reduction of Covid-19 restrictions in launching renewed
attacks.
The department warned
against potential dangers posed by local terrorists who adopt racial ideas.
The pandemic has opened
the door for a surge in the number of people believing in the conspiracy
theory. It engendered anger because of the economic lockdown induced by it.
The US Department is
apparently taking dangers inherent in this anger seriously. It said some
problems are in the horizon because of this anger.
Certain danger
Extremists can use the
reduction of Covid-19 restrictions in staging attacks around the United States,
according to the Associated Press.
It said the same
restrictions contributed to reducing attacks against vital targets in the US in
the past period.
It referred to previous
attacks by extremists against institutions, companies and religious
concentrations.
