| US defence and security agencies said they believed the threat of militant attacks inside the United States was low during this New Year's holiday, yet some chance of an attack was "undeniable," according to security assessments reviewed on Friday.
"There are no indications of specific threats to the US Homeland," said a "situational awareness" bulletin issued to US Army personnel this week by the Army's Training and Doctrine Command. "However the threat from homegrown violent extremists (HVEs) in the United States is undeniable," the bulletin added.
A copy of the bulletin was seen by Reuters on Friday.
A senior US official familiar with government-wide analyses of New Year's holiday attack threats said the Army assessments were consistent with those of other US security and intelligence agencies.
