The hacker group Anonymous said Saturday that the Islamic State plans to attack sites in the U.S., Paris, Indonesia, Italy and Lebanon on Sunday.

In the U.S., the terrorist group is planning an attack at the WWE Survivor Series pro-wrestling event at the Philips Arena in Atlanta at 7:30 p.m. EST on Sunday, The International Business Times reports.

The FBI said Saturday that it was aware of the alleged threat to the Atlanta event, but lacked "specific or credible information of an attack," FBI Special Agent in Charge Britt Johnson said.
"The FBI is aware of reports of an alleged threat that includes an Atlanta, Georgia, venue and event," Johnson told the IBT. "We have ... made the proper notifications as we continue to work closely with our law-enforcement and private-sector partners to keep our community safe."

WWE officials said that the event would continue as scheduled.

"WWE Survivor Series is currently scheduled as planned while we investigate the matter with federal, state and local authorities," the organization told The Hill.
