RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- Saudi Arabia says it will move ahead with plans to build a fence along its border with Iraq to prevent terrorists from moving between the two countries.
Saying although such "infiltrations" into Iraq are rare, Saudi Interior Minister Prince Nayef bin Abdulaziz said Tuesday Riyadh would proceed with a border fence to prevent such unauthorized crossings, the Kuwait news agency KUNA reported.
"If (terrorists) did not find facilities to reach Iraq they would never have made it," Nayef said about Saudis arrested in Iraq, KUNA reported.
The fence would be used to prevent Saudi militants from joining such Sunni Arab terrorist groups as al-Qaida In Iraq, as well as to prevent terrorists based in Iraq to targets in Saudi Arabia, officials said.
