The Norwegian police temporarily introduce an internal border control. The background is an increased threat level in the country.

– The purpose of the temporary internal border control is to give the police some more tools for border control, says the police’s Tone Vangen.

This involves, for example, the collection of information, passenger data, and greater opportunities to deport and reject people, according to Vangen.

However, the border crossings are not expected to take longer than before.
