| Concrete barriers are being built along a stretch of the South Africa-Mozambique border to prevent people crossing over to steal and smuggle vehicles. | |
| South African authorities have budgeted close to $2.7m (£2.1m) to build the wall. It's made up of three sections: | |
| An 8km (5 mile) barrier near Tembe Elephant Park | |
| An 8km-long stretch near iSimangaliso Wetland Park | |
| A 9km wall from the western boundary of Tembe Elephant Park towards Pongolo River | |
| Building works on the Tembe Elephant Park section "are currently underway," according to a joint briefing by the South African government and KwaZulu-Natal province. | |
| "The impact of the project has been positively received by the community and the South African National Defense Force," it added. | |
| That the barrier is already foiling crime was emphasised by a failed attempt to drive a stolen SUV over the barrier using "iron ladders". It appears the ladders buckled, causing its drivers to set the vehicle on fire to destroy evidence. | |
| According to Defenceweb, there are 15 companies of troops safeguarding South Africa’s borders, particularly "high-risk borders" with Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Lesotho. | |
