(ANSA-AFP) - WARSAW, OCT 13 - Poland says it is planning to
build a wall to stop migrants crossing the border into Belarus,
according to a draft law due to be debated in parliament on
Wednesday. The wall is estimated to cost 353 million euros ($407
million) to construct and will include motion detectors. The
cabinet adopted the draft on Tuesday and it is due to be voted
by lawmakers later on Wednesday or on Thursday. "The number of
attempts to cross the border is growing," the government said in
the justification for the legislation. (ANSA-AFP).
