As thunderstorms struck the border region, nearly 2,000 migrants crossed the Rio Grande from Matamoros, Mexico hoping to gain release as the end of the COVID-19 Title 42 authority nears.
BROWNSVILLE, Texas — Braving the heavy downpour on Thursday, Border Patrol agents and local authorities struggled to move the mostly Venezuelan migrants out of the weather.
by Breitbart Texas, more than 1,600 migrants were apprehended in a single twenty-four-hour period ending Sunday.Since then, the source says nearly 7,000 migrants made the crossing into Brownsville. The increase in migrant crossings is also negatively impacting detention capabilities all along the southwest border. According to the source, more than 19,000 migrants are in temporary detention facilities awaiting processing.
The source told Breitbart Texas nearly 2,000 migrants crossed on Thursday alone. After crossing the Rio Grande, the migrants gathered near a make-shift intake center where biographical information was taken and personal property was inventoried. At the hastily set up intake center, the Border Patrol placed portable bathroom facilities to accommodate the increased migrant crossings. The migrants are transported from the intake center to processing centers in multiple areas in the Texas Rio Grande Valley as transportation resources become available.
