They explicitly call out "unregulated militias" in the same threat assessment.
The linked briefing is basically a daily update update - it includes a 3 day weather report and assessment on weather impact on operations.
We can't know why the three specific events were called out as "Events of Interest". Probably through social media posts - in fact all the details of the events seem to be the type of stuff on a facebook event page. Question is do militias do that on their patrols?
We're missing all sorts of contexts. Like yes, the slide header is "Threat Fusion Running Estimate", but the subheader is "Events of Interest". Does inclusion under this slide mean they actually think they are a threat? What are their working definition of threat? Or are events of interest (as in any type of large gathering near and related to the area of operations) automatically included in the threat estimate?
For example, the inter-faith group "being tracked" is assembly a protest outside (or near? unclear) a military base. Knowing that a protest will appear a certainly a way to deconflict.
