Berlin Wall marks 13th anniversary with tighter defences
Berlin marked the 13th anniversary of the wall as refugees crossing to the West dwindled to a trickle. West Berlin officials describe the barrier as almost escape proof with 14,000 soldiers patrolling the border and a mined strip along the 100 mile fortifications. The wall remains a symbol of tension with attempts to protest by poking holes and warnings for East German guards to shoot on sight.

Officials said they would decide today if Ermolenko seeks asylum in Australia, following airport delays and tape-recorded claims of duress. The case echoes the 1954 Petrov affair, highlighting union power in travel restrictions.
