As Tanjug's on-site reporter says, the authorities resorted to the move after some migrants tried to escape from the camp and go into the territory of Serbia.
The fence is around two meters high, and the barbed wire is also being rolled out.
Around 40 members of the police and armed forces with heavy machinery have been engaged to erect the fence.
Tabanovce is located in Macedonia's border area with Serbia.
