Magal to participate in tender for European separation fence

Israeli companies will participate in tenders to build hundreds of kilometers of fences along the EU's new eastern border.

After European representatives launched a campaign against Israel's separation fence, and voted against Israel at the UN general assembly, the EU is planning a separation fence of its own. The EU plans to build a fence to separate its new members - Poland and Hungary - from its new neighbors - Russia, Belarus and Ukraine - to prevent the free movement of migrants seeking to enter the EU.

Israeli companies that specialize in the construction of warning fences and security systems will participate in tenders to build hundreds of kilometers of fences along the EU's new eastern border.

The extremely obvious difference being that any EU fence will run along the border rather than annexing large amounts of non EU land in order to protect illegal EU settlements in Belarus.
