The British government has announced plans to build a 13-foot wall in Calais, France, in order to prevent Muslim migrants from crossing the English Channel.

The kilometer-long wall will be constructed along a divided highway that leads to the French port. “People are still getting through,” said U.K. Immigration Minister Robert Goodwill. “We have done the fence, now we are doing the wall,” he added.

Calais is the location of a vast, violent migrant camp known as “the Jungle” that poses a significant security threat to the British and French people. On Monday, French truck drivers blockaded the main highway in Calais in protest of the French government’s failure to shut down the migrant camp.

Truck drivers making the journey from France to England are routinely attacked by migrants and human traffickers desperate to get those migrants into the U.K. Drivers have reported migrants throwing Molotov cocktails, constructing roadblocks, and brandishing chainsaws and machetes.

The U.K. is not the only European country that has constructed barriers to keep out the Islamic threat. Norway is constructing a nearly 700-foot long, 11-foot high fence along its border with Russia to keep out migrants. Hungary constructed two fences along its borders with Croatia and Serbia. Bulgaria has built one along its border with Turkey, and Macedonia built one along its border with Greece. Austria is currently constructing a 100-kilometer barrier along its southern border with Hungary.

Not only are European nations trying to keep Muslim migrants out, but some are also going to great lengths to get those within their borders to leave. Norway, Germany, and Sweden are all offering migrants money to leave their lands.
