Authorities in New York and Washington are on high alert after U.S. airstrikes on three Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday night.
"We're tracking the situation unfolding in Iran," NYPD said in a post on X. "Out of an abundance of caution, we're deploying additional resources to religious, cultural, and diplomatic sites across NYC and coordinating with our federal partners. We'll continue to monitor for any potential impact to NYC."
Shortly thereafter, the [Washington, DC] Metropolitan Police Department released a similar statement on the social media platform.
