Iran has decided to seal its border with Afghanistan in a move to end infiltration and terrorism.

The decision was taken after increased terrorist activities and infiltration from Afghanistan.

According to the details, Iran started implementing the plan to build a 300 kilometer long and four meter high wall on the Afghan border.

Recently, Iranian Defence Minister Mohammad Reza Ashtiani has said that the revival and activation of terrorist groups in Afghanistan is a great threat to the region.

He said in the Kerman bombing, terrorists came to Iran from Afghanistan due to which the country's security was severely damaged.

According to Caspian News, since the Taliban regime, there has been a serious increase in terrorism and drug trafficking by illegal immigrants through the Afghan border.

It has reported that more than eight million Afghan citizens are illegal in Iran, out of which five million have been deported by the Iranian authorities. It further reported that Iran's eastern and southeastern regions are also used as a major route for drug trafficking into Europe.
