Poland plans to build a fence on the border with Belarus

Polish Interior Ministry announced the start of construction of a 186-kilometer long permanent fence on the border with Belarus

Polish Border Guard has signed three contracts with contractors for the construction of the capital fence on the border with Belarus, said Polish Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs and Administration Maciej Wonsik.

“Today the Border Guard has signed the contracts for the construction of the fence. The construction is scheduled to be completed by the end of June 2022”, – Wonsik said.

The decision was taken by Warsaw against the background of the migration crisis on the border with Belarus. It is assumed that the fence will be 5 meters high, with night vision cameras, motion detectors and day vision cameras.
