“ISIS published an operational call in its official al-Naba newsletter (Issue 541, April 3, 2026) ordering followers to set fire to Jewish synagogues across America, Europe, Russia, and India. We reviewed the source document directly. The specific call targets Jewish sites, tied to the Israeli closure of the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Outlets across the country have been reporting this as a call to burn Christian churches as well. That specific language does not appear in the quoted ISIS text, and we are going to walk through exactly where that claim came from. The threat to churches this Easter is real and we will explain why, but your security team deserves an accurate assessment, not a headline that got loose. Al-Qaeda’s Inspire magazine also published bomb-making content days earlier. Both threat streams are active. Treat this weekend as a heightened threat environment.”
