Iran has given its approval to participate in the World Cup, which has raised concerns in the US about an increased risk of terrorism. American authorities are preparing to host 78 matches, and local media warns about threats, especially due to military conflicts with Iran. The FBI has organized training exercises to address internal threats, highlighting the difficulty of controlling such a large number of venues and events. To ensure security, 625 million euros have been allocated, and experts warn about risks for soft targets, such as hotels and fan gatherings. The conflict with Iran amplifies fears of a terrorist attack, especially in the context of a possible match between the two nations on July 3. However, some experts believe that the risks are exaggerated, emphasizing Iran's lack of capability to carry out an attack on American soil.
