The US Federal Aviation Administration imposed a month-long ban on drones flying over critical infrastructure in New York, a day after announcing the same measure for New Jersey.

The agency announced 30 temporary flight restrictions in the state, according to a statement on Friday. Areas covered by the latest New York ban include facilities in Staten Island, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx.
