Terrorism Alert Notched Up After Iranian Attack

Following the Defense Council meeting, a heightened level of terrorism alert may have been declared in Hungary. This will mean that a reinforced police presence may again be seen in public areas, and that the security level of protected persons, strategic companies, hazardous production facilities and Jewish-affiliated institutions will be raised.
