Additional armed Gardaí are to be sent to the border region in the New Year.
A third Armed Support Unit (ASU) is to be set-up in the Cavan/Monaghan region by Garda HQ, amid fears of a no-deal Brexit.
The Irish Independent reports that potential security problems arising from the UK’s exit from the EU in March have led to the move being fast-tracked.
Two ASUs are already in operation – one in Ballyshannon in Donegal and another in Dundalk in Louth.
