The Israel–Egypt barrier (or Israel–Egypt border fence; Project name: Hourglass, , ''Sha'on HaḤol'', lit. ''sand clock'') refers to a border barrier built by Israel along sections of its border with Egypt. It was originally an attempt to curb the influx of illegal migrants from African countries.〔Butcher, Tim. (Sharon presses for fence across Sinai ), ''Daily Telegraph'', December 07, 2005.〕 However, following increased insurgent movement across the southern border in 2011, Israel upgraded the steel barrier project to include cameras, radar and motion detectors. In January 2013, construction of the barrier was completed in its main section.〔(Israel completes most of Egypt border fence ), Los Angeles Times. January 2, 2013〕 The final section of the fence was completed in December 2013.〔(Israel Completes 245 Mile, NIS 1.6 Billion Security Fence Along Sinai Border with Egypt ) Algemeiner, DECEMBER 4, 2013 2:58 PM〕 A number of countries, including the United States and India, have sent delegations to Israel to study border security and the various technologies used by the IDF to secure Israel's borders, including the Israel–Egypt border. Some of these countries may implement these technologies as part of their own border fences. The 245 mile fence took three years to construct, at an estimated cost of NIS 1.6 Billion, making it one of the largest projects in Israel's history.〔(Israel Completes 245 Mile, NIS 1.6 Billion Security Fence Along Sinai Border with Egypt ) Algemeiner, DECEMBER 4, 2013 2:58 PM〕 ==Background==
An old rusty low fence swamped by shifting sand dunes has existed along Israel's Sinai Peninsula border with Egypt, mainly serving as a marker between the two countries. Smuggling of cigarettes and drugs often carried on camels by Bedouins whose tribal lands straddle the border, has been a long-term problem. In December 2005 armed infiltrations into Israel along the porous border led to calls for the construction of a security fence.〔Butcher, Tim. (Sharon presses for fence across Sinai ), ''Daily Telegraph'', December 07, 2005.〕 The Israeli government decided in the late 2000s to build the barrier.
