The US Supreme Court has given the green light for Donald Trump's administration to receive funding to build a wall aimed at keeping illegal immigrants out of the USA.
The US President can now officially use more than AED 9.1 billion of Pentagon funds to construct a section of the barrier on the southern border.
The top court ruled in favour of blocking a ruling by a federal judge in California that would have prevented Trump from spending the money on the wall.
The wall between the USA and Mexico is strongly opposed by Democrats.
