ATHENS (Reuters) - Greek police tightened security around U.S., British and Israeli companies and embassies on Thursday after deadly explosions rocked Istanbul in neighboring Turkey, police officials told Reuters.



Police also stepped up security around synagogues, they said.


"Both in Athens and in (the northern city) of Thessaloniki today we have increased security around American, British and Israeli potential targets after these blasts," a police source told Reuters.


"If your neighbor's house is on fire you are concerned that yours will be also soon."
