The fence on the eastern border will be higher and denser than previously planned.
Writes UNN with reference to Yleisradio.
Details
By the end of 2026, a total of 200 kilometers of fences will have been erected on the eastern border of Finland and Russia. Some other changes have been made to the project: the fence will be half a meter higher, about 3.5 meters high, and the fence network will be denser.
Reference
Finland's eastern border is about 1300 kilometers long.
Erkki Matilainen, project manager of the Border Guard, said in a press release that more than 50 kilometers of the barrier zone in southeastern Finland, North Karelia and Kainuu have been cleared of trees.
