The Austrian and German police are
boosting controls at the Italian-Austrian border at the Brenner
Pass to combat illegal entry by migrants, a German official told
ANSA on Friday.
The German police cooperate with their Austrian colleagues at
the pass, with many migrants trying to enter Austria on the way
to Germany.
"The decision was taken two days ago," Thomas Borowik, a
federal police official in Munich, told ANSA.
"It stems from weeks of talks between German and Austrian
security officials".
