Following the Paris Attacks, the world is on edge awaiting for the next ISIS attack. According to reports, ISIS supporters are circulating a video that appears to threaten New York City.
In a statement, the NYPD said that it was aware of the newly-released video, but that there is “no current or specific threat to the City at this time.”
The video includes footage from the attacks in Paris last week, as well as footage from an earlier video that also threatened New York, PIX 11 reports. A man is seen assembling a suicide vest followed by clips of New York City’s Times and Herald Squares.
“While some of the video footage is not new, the video reaffirms the message that New York City remains a top terrorist target,” the statement read. “We will remain at a heightened state of vigilance and will continue to work with the FBI, the Joint Terrorism Task Force and the entire intelligence community to keep the City of New York safe.”
“Whether this video is substantial, we don’t know yet,” CNN’s Jim Sciutto said. “But it’s certainly threatening.”
ISIS threatened Washington, DC in a similar video earlier this week.
