In response to escalating tensions in the Middle East, New York City and Washington D.C. have increased security measures. These actions follow U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.
The New York Police Department (NYPD) has deployed additional resources to religious, cultural, and diplomatic sites. The Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) in Washington D.C. is coordinating with local, state, and federal law enforcement to safeguard residents.
Authorities are monitoring online activity and increasing presence at potential targets. These measures reflect a coordinated effort to maintain public safety.
