Denmark is extending its border checks with Germany for a further six months, citing crime and other ongoing security threats.
Denmark's temporary controls on the border with Germany have been extended several times and were most recently due to end next month. They are now set to continue until mid-November.
"The security of the Danes is the government's top priority. The government believes that the current threat situation makes it necessary to maintain the temporary border controls with Germany," Danish Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard said in a statement.
The arrest of two men by the German police last month on suspicion that they were planning an attack on the vicinity of the Swedish parliament shows the importance of securing the border, he said.
The intensified fight against crime means that the licence plate numbers of cars at the border will be recorded more frequently and, in the long term, drones could also be used along the German-Danish land border.
Germany and Denmark are both in the Schengen zone, Europe's free movement area, which means there are usually no border checks.
