Sweden launches its own 'Berlin Wall' with Denmark as it orders travellers to show ID for the first time in 50 years... while Copenhagen closes borders with Germany 

For the first time in 50 years, Sweden has introduced identity checks for all train, bus and ferry passengers travelling from Denmark in a desperate move to stem an unprecedented migrant influx. A temporary fence dubbed 'Sweden's own Berlin Wall' has been erected between tracks at Copenhagen airport's Kastrup station to prevent illegal migrants entering Sweden.
