Additional police officers are being deployed to airports in New York City and New Jersey after an attack at an airport in Istanbul, Turkey. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey said Tuesday that travelers should expect to see officers with tactical weapons patrolling at New York's John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia airports and at New Jersey's Newark International Airport.
Port Authority officials said they were continuing to monitor the situation in Turkey alongside federal and local officials, including the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force.
Massachusetts State Police say they're maintaining a "robust and multi-layered security operation" at Boston's Logan International Airport.
State police say they will continue to monitor developments from the attack. They say the security operation at Boston's airport includes patrol and tactical police assets that are visible to travelers and as well as additional security measures that remain unseen.
