Saudis to Build Security Fence
Along Iraq Border

KUWAIT CITY,
Nov. 14--Saudi Arabia will press ahead with plans to build a massive security fence along its borders with Iraq to prevent infiltration of “terrorists,“ the interior minister said in an interview published Tuesday, AFP reported.

Construction of the double-track barbed fence, which will be fitted with remote sensors and thermal cameras, will begin next year, Prince Nayef bin Abdul Aziz told Al-Anbaa Kuwaiti newspaper.

“Authorities in Saudi Arabia have begun the executive measures to build the largest security fence that extends along the 900-km (562-miles) border with Iraq,“ he said.

The fence is a part of a comprehensive security plan to fortify the borders with Iraq that also involves setting up military bases and other hi-tech devices.

“The plan will cost $12 billion, including $500 million to build the fence which will be completed after five to six years,“ Prince Nayef said.
