American intelligence agencies have intercepted encrypted messages from Iran that appear to be “operational trigger(s)” for “sleeper assets.” In the wake of the massive illegal alien invasion under the Biden administration, there is reason to believe this message could be reaching hundreds of teams. DHS Security advisor and Secret Service supervisor Charles Marino suggested the size of those teams could be as much as 20 people.
Iran may be preparing to activate sleeper cells abroad after U.S. intelligence intercepted an encrypted message believed to have originated inside the Islamic Republic, according to an alert reported by ABC News.
The communication was described as an “operational trigger” directed at “sleeper assets” — covert operatives embedded in foreign countries who live quietly among civilians until they are ordered to strike.
U.S. analysts say the coded signal surfaced shortly after Iran’s longtime supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed in a joint U.S.-Israeli airstrike in Tehran on Feb. 28. His son, Mojtaba Khamenei, has since been elevated to the role of supreme leader.
According to the alert, the encrypted message was transmitted across several countries and flagged by American intelligence agencies, which believe it was “likely of Iranian origin” and intended for “clandestine recipients” using passcodes.
Officials said the signal carried “international rebroadcast characteristics,” suggesting it may have been designed to reach operatives already positioned outside Iran’s borders. No specific attack location or operational target has been identified.
The alert noted that the transmissions resemble methods historically used to deliver instructions to “covert operatives or sleeper assets” without relying on internet communications.

The signals could “be intended to activate or provide instructions to prepositioned sleeper assets operating outside the originating country,” the alert said, according to ABC News.
The possibility that Iranian sleeper cells may already be inside the United States has heightened concern among security officials as the war enters its second week.
The Daily Mail reported last year on what it described as a passport pipeline involving Iranian-linked operatives traveling through Venezuela before entering Western countries — a potential pathway that could allow networks to establish a foothold near the United States.
Tensions have escalated as fighting between Iran, the United States and Israel intensifies.
The situation reportedly strained relations between Washington and Jerusalem after Israeli forces bombed Iranian oil depots — a move that alarmed White House officials concerned the strike could drive up gasoline prices for Americans.
Security experts warn the threat could come from both lone actors sympathetic to Tehran and organized sleeper networks awaiting orders.
In an interview with the Daily Mail, former Department of Homeland Security adviser and Secret Service supervisor Charles Marino said the United States could be facing a “convergence” of threats.
“Is it possible you have 10, 15, 20 people in the country that are part of a cell that then go out and carry out simultaneous or near-simultaneous attacks? Yes,” Marino said.

He warned that terrorists seeking maximum casualties would likely focus on “soft” targets such as concerts, sporting events, public venues and other crowded gatherings.
One looming concern is the upcoming World Cup, which has been designated a National Special Security Event and is expected to draw massive international crowds.
