DUAL US/ISRAELI CITIZEN Chertoff announces new screening measures for air cargo

BOSTON -- Packages taken to airline ticket counters for shipment on passenger planes will have to go through the same security screening as checked baggage, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff announced Thursday.

Such packages -- brought to an airline's counter by individuals looking to get a package to another destination or by courier services -- already were being screened for the past several months at most airports around the country.

But the screening now will be mandatory for 100 percent of those packages, Chertoff said at a news conference at Boston's Logan International Airport.
