March 13 — U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday the U.S. is conducting surveillance on Iranian nationals in the country amid the ongoing conflict with Iran, citing concerns over potential domestic terrorism threats. In a Fox News interview airing Friday, Trump stated: “We are watching them very, very closely—they are all under surveillance right now.” He also noted over 1,700 Iranians entered the U.S. illegally during the previous administration. When asked if the U.S. was prepared to act against sleeper cells, Trump emphasized any response would be “very legally, very carefully.” “You have to be careful in many ways because there are also many good people,” he added. Trump did not identify any specific threats posed by Iranian nationals in the U.S. However, U.S. law enforcement has been on high alert in recent days since the U.S. and Israel launched a military conflict against Iran, to prevent potential attacks.

On March 13, the Wall Street Journal reported that two U.S. officials said the Pentagon is deploying a Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) to the Middle East as Iran ramps up attacks on the Strait of Hormuz.
