Eisenhower Park in Nassau County will host the ICC World Cup 2024 in June.

The International Cricket Council World Cup 2024 is next month on Long Island; a senior law enforcement official says there's no evidence of any specific plot or credible threat against the stadiumAuthorities plan to ramp up police presence at cricket watch parties and the FBI's Nassau County office will work on security with NYPD and other local law enforcement partners leading up to next month's ICC World Cup 2024 after a pro-ISIS outlet posted a graphic featuring host venue...

The image purportedly included the new 34,000-seater venue, which is about 25 miles east of New York City, and drones flying, with text indicating,"You wait for matches and we wait for you." It mentioned June 9.The senior law enforcement official says there's no evidence of any plot specifically targeting the World Cup or a specific game on June 9. The ISIS symbolism was notable, the official said.

According to the senior law enforcement official, the intelligence assessment is that ISIS hopes for violence, and hopes it can incite someone to do something by circulating its propaganda. The terror group is known for using chaos to fuel its sinister efforts across the globe. Maybe someone will feel moved to attack, they hope, the official said.

A large crowd is expected at the Nassau County stadium through the duration of the tournament, particularly for the June 9 game. That one's a major rivalry -- India vs. Pakistan -- and a big crowd is expected. The official says the fact that ISIS is calling out the World Cup as an event means law enforcement should plan accordingly.
