A mass shooting on 6th Street in Austin, Texas killed 2 people and injured 14 during the period immediately following US and Israeli strikes on Iran's nuclear program. Federal investigators subsequently investigated the shooting for a potential Iran nexus, given the timing and the documented presence of Iranian-aligned networks in Texas. The investigation was part of broader post-strike heightened monitoring of potential Iranian-directed or inspired attacks across the US. The shooting underscored the FBI's concern that the period following the Iran strikes would see activation of sleeper assets or inspired lone-wolf actors.
