MODERATORS
This is patently untrue.
What else is this article lying about?
Says they are here as well

EU source:
France 01/05/2023 - 31/10/2023 New terrorist threats, increasing risk of terrorist organisations present on national territory targeting the Rugby World Cup taking place in September and October 2023, increase in irregular entry flows at the external borders (from the Central Mediterranean and the Western Balkans); internal borders with Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Spain

Except I’ve crossed the border with Belgium and Luxemburg five times in total since May and I have seen no controls.
Has anyone?
Haven't seen any border control either and we cross several borders between Belgium, France, Germany and Austria each year. The only border control I've ever seen is in Basel, Switzerland, and even that is never a big deal, they have never actually stopped us.
