Georgia heightens security after Paris attacks

Georgia has adopted tighter security measures following Friday's deadly attacks in Paris.

"Following the terrorist attacks in Paris, we have taken all security measures, including strengthening security measures at our borders and airports,” Deputy Head of the Administration of Georgia’s State Security Service Nino Giorgobiani said today.

"Also, there is tightened control over all strategic facilities.”

France declared a national state of emergency and tightened its borders after at least 120 people were killed in a night of gun and bomb attacks in Paris on November 13.

Georgian authorities condemned terrorism and said Georgia stood by France after the attacks, which they said were against "all of humanity".
