Germany has announced a significant tightening of its border controls in response to rising concerns over irregular migration and terrorism.
Starting next week, all German borders will be temporarily monitored, a move prompted by recent attacks in Mannheim and Solingen.
German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser emphasized the need for stricter security measures during a press conference.
Despite these changes, Swiss authorities have stated that the new German controls will not affect Switzerland's border regime.
This decision highlights Germany's proactive stance in addressing security threats while maintaining diplomatic relations with neighboring countries.
