The FBI has issued a warning to state and city police of potential ISIS threats against the US after a list of churches was posted online by ISIS supporters.
The FBI said officers should be more vigilant over the holidays given the calls for attacks.
‘The FBI is aware of the recent link published online that urges attacks against U.S. churches.
‘As with similar threats, the FBI is tracking this matter while we investigate its credibility,’ it said.

This comes less than a week after an attack at Berlin’s Christmas markets by terrorist Anis Amri.
ISIS claimed responsibility for the massacre shortly after it unfolded, describing Amri as a ‘soldier’.
Amri was shot dead in Milan on Friday morning by two young policemen carrying out routine traffic stops.
