In late November 2025, in Fort Worth, Texas, a significant law enforcement operation led to the arrest of an Afghan national named Mohammad Dawood Alokozay, who was accused of planning bomb attacks. The Texas Department of Public Safety alerted the FBI after numerous social media accounts shared a video call. The call featured a man, later identified as Alokozay, making threats to construct a bomb in his vehicle and harm others on the call. Attorney General Pam Bondi described the individual as 'frightening' due to his online communications that included mentions of bomb-making materials used by the Taliban. Alokozay engaged with individuals online on the social media platform TikTok, sharing his intentions to create explosives and carrying out attacks. His actions drew the attention of local law enforcement, U.S. attorneys, and the FBI, resulting in a swift and coordinated response. Bondi asserted that Alokozay's situation brings to light the greater issue of inadequate vetting processes applicable to foreign nationals, highlighting the risk it poses to public safety. The investigation revealed that Alokozay's prior communications contained alarming details about his plans, which prompted law enforcement agencies to act expeditiously. The FBI utilized facial recognition technology to confirm Alokozay’s identity in the video that circulated as part of the threats, culminating in his arrest. He has since faced charges in federal court, although he has yet to enter a plea, and it remains unclear whether he has legal representation. Bondi's remarks emphasized the pressing need for improved vetting systems regarding individuals entering the United States. This case has drawn attention due to ongoing discussions about immigration policies and security measures, especially after a recent incident involving another Afghan national who was implicated in a violent crime against National Guard members. The apprehension of Alokozay suggests a critical evaluation of these security protocols is necessary to prevent potential threats from foreign nationals in the future.
