Turkey Starts Building Border Wall With Iran- Report

Turkey has begun construction of a wall along the country's frontier with Iran, mimicking the Turkish barrier along the Syrian border, Turkish media report says.

The private Dogan news agency said the governor of Agri province, Suleyman Elban, inspected the construction of the security wall on Tuesday. The Turkish authorities are constructing the 2-meter wide, 3-meter high barrier with portable blocks, the report said, VOA reports.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced in January plans to build a wall along its borders with Iraq and Iran, similar to the one currently being erected along the 911-kilometer (566-mile) frontier with Syria.
