Iraq finished a 600-km concrete border wall with Syria by Nov. 2025 to boost security amid regional instability.
Iraq has completed a 600-kilometer concrete border wall along its eastern frontier with Syria, with about 350 kilometers finished by November 2025.
Built to curb militant infiltration, smuggling, and cross-border attacks, the barrier includes surveillance systems, trenches, and observation towers.
The project, launched in 2022, reflects growing security concerns after the fall of Syria’s Assad regime and aims to strengthen Iraq’s sovereignty amid regional instability and Iranian influence.
While praised for enhancing national security, the wall has raised concerns among Kurdish communities and regional observers about militarization and reduced cooperation.
