President Joe Biden has been warned by commanders that another terrorist attack is “highly likely” to happen in the next 24 to 36 hours.

“The situation on the ground continues to be extremely dangerous, and the threat of terrorist attacks on the airport remains high. Our commanders informed me that an attack is highly likely in the next 24-36 hours,” the president said in a statement the White House issued Saturday afternoon.
