On Tuesday, FBI Director Christopher Wray and others will testify before the Senate Homeland Security Committee about domestic threats the country is facing.

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators gather Saturday in New York as the war between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas continues. Federal officials say they are responding to a rise in threats against Arab, Jewish and Muslim communities as the war in Gaza intensifies, coordinating with thousands of police departments across the country to better understand the threats and deploy resources.
