Finland has begun building a 124-mile-long fence on its border with Russia to help and boost security amidst the ongoing war in Ukraine. Border guards said it is going to be 10 feet tall with barbed wire on top. As of now, the border is secured by light wooden fences but due to the rise in Russians seeking to escape Russia in order to not be conscripted to fight in Ukraine Finland had decided to build a more secure fence. In July Finland passed new amendments to its Boarder Guard act that allowed the building of stronger fences.
