washington - The US government has tightened security measures for its diplomatic posts in Islamic countries. Government officials told CNN that this extra vigilance is mainly due to the opening of the US embassy on Monday in Jerusalem. Washington takes into account protests at American embassies in Muslim countries for that day.

President Donald Trump's decision to move the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem has received a lot of criticism. Especially the Palestinians are angry. They see East Jerusalem as the capital of a future Palestinian state.

Turkey and the Arab League, a joint venture of 22 states, also protested strongly against the move of the American embassy.
