Washington (CNN)The Defense Department will pause construction of the wall along the US-Mexico border as it reviews President Joe Biden's executive order calling for construction to grind to a halt.

The Army Corps of Engineers, which provides direction and oversight of border projects, "will take the appropriate actions in accordance with the (executive order)," said Raini Brunson, a spokesperson for the agency, later adding that contractors involved in construction have been told not to install any additional physical barriers.
