US heightens security at Capitol following Iran missile strikes

Описание: Security is visibly ramping up across the nation’s capital as tensions escalate overseas following U.S. and Israeli military operations involving Iran.
This morning, additional law enforcement officers could be seen stationed around the U.S. Capitol complex. Congressional security officials confirmed that heightened protective measures are now in place following the weekend strikes.
The House Sergeant-at-Arms says officers are increasing their visibility out of an abundance of caution. Behind the scenes, Capitol Police are working closely with federal intelligence partners, monitoring global developments in real time. And the heightened security isn’t limited to Capitol Hill.
