The northern area of the Iraqi-Syrian border falls within the jurisdiction of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES) on the Syrian side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For several years, the Iraqi government has been actively engaged in securing its border with Syria in order to prevent the infiltration of Islamic State (ISIS) jihadists into Iraq. Measures taken include the construction of earthen berms, trenches, and the installation of thermal cameras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Hozan Zubeir<\/strong>
