The number of migrants arriving at the southern border is unprecedented, with Chinese migrants being the fastest-growing group. Many Chinese migrants, including those from the middle class, are using a new route to enter the United States through a gap in the border fence. They travel thousands of miles, passing through multiple countries, and pay smugglers around $400 for transportation to the gap. The migrants cite reasons such as escaping China's political climate and seeking better job opportunities. They learn about this entryway through social media platforms like TikTok. Once they surrender to border patrol, they are taken to a detention facility and eventually released to file asylum claims. The situation poses challenges as there is a backlog in appointments at legal border crossings and difficulties in repatriating failed asylum seekers to China.

The Tucson sector has become the busiest area for migrant apprehensions due to the large number of open gates along the southern border. This is a change from previous years when people would try to evade law enforcement. Now, migrants are coming through the open gates in large numbers, with 250 apprehended in just two and a half hours. This is unusual for the Tucson sector, which typically doesn't see people self-surrendering to border patrol agents. In fact, there were 1,600 apprehensions in a single day.

In Eagle Pass, Texas, customs and border protection cut a hole in the Constantino wire, allowing migrants to come through. Initially, there were about 60 to 70 people, but it quickly grew to 300. Texas DPS rescued women and children from the river and brought them to safety. Illegal migration across the river into the United States continues, with thousands of people crossing in Eagle Pass. Over the weekend, a new record was set with 11,000 people crossing in a single day. We will continue to monitor the situation.

Thousands of undocumented migrants flood across the southern border, as shown in new drone images. Eagle Pass, Texas experiences one of the largest mass illegal crossings ever seen, with around 1,000 adult men from Venezuela crossing in just 2 hours.

A train carrying migrants is expected to arrive in Eagle Pass soon. Typically, caravans use trains as their mode of transportation, and once they reach northern Mexico, they break up into smaller groups and cross between ports of entry. However, there has been a constant flow of illegal immigrants crossing between ports of entry in Eagle Pass. The burden of this falls on the taxpayers and communities in the area. It is the responsibility of the state to prevent these illegal crossings, but as long as the federal government incentivizes illegal immigration, the flow of illegal immigrants will continue.

I spent a week in Tapachula, Mexico, where thousands of migrants are trapped due to a military operation aimed at controlling the situation before the U.S. elections. The Mexican government is relocating some migrants to other cities but is keeping most of them in the south to avoid a surge at the border. Many migrants are anxious about a potential Trump victory, fearing he would close the border. As a result, they are increasingly attempting to cross illegally. I predict that once the election is over, there could be a significant influx of migrants as the Mexican authorities may no longer hold them back. The current situation is unprecedented, with around 150,000 migrants in Tapachula, all eager to move north.

Mexico struggles to handle a sudden influx of millions of people, despite the desire to welcome them. Many have lived in the U.S. for decades, building lives and families there. The idea of deporting them back to Mexico, where they may find nothing left and face violence, is unrealistic. This situation could lead to a significant crisis, as these individuals cannot simply return to a life of lower wages and instability.

In December, there has been a continuous influx of migrants at Eagle Pass, causing a border crisis. Large groups of thousands of asylum seekers are arriving at Piedras Negras every day, believing they will be granted direct entry into the United States. As a result, the international bridge and train crossings have been closed, leading to a disastrous situation.

Thousands of migrants are waiting in shelters in Northern Mexico, while officials claim the border is closed and secure. The situation at the US southern border is said to be reaching a breaking point, with nearly 10,000 daily encounters on average. However, some argue that this is not a border crisis but rather a result of imperialism, climate issues, and trade problems. Despite differing opinions, the president is praised for his efforts in securing the border and addressing immigration. Since December, there have been over 35,000 migrant encounters and a total of 250,000 encounters so far.

We're getting an aerial view of a massive situation unfolding at the US-Mexico border near Del Rio, Texas. Thousands of migrants, primarily Haitian, are congregating under the international bridge, waiting to be processed by Border Patrol. The numbers have exploded in the last 48 hours, tripling from just over 4,000 to upwards of 11,000. People are constantly streaming in, crossing the Rio Grande from Ciudad Acuna, Mexico, using a dam and a dirt path. Border Patrol is overwhelmed and doesn't have the capacity to process everyone, leading to the congestion under the bridge. We're seeing hundreds crossing the river at a time, with people freely moving back and forth between the US and Mexico, seemingly unimpeded by authorities.

On the inauguration day of President Donald Trump, a large caravan of about 2,000 migrants departed from Tapachula, Chiapas. These individuals, hailing from Central and South America, are making the journey with the hope of reaching the U.S. before Trump's inauguration.

In El Paso, there is a humanitarian crisis with around 2,500 migrants sleeping on the streets. Most of them are from Venezuela, but there are also migrants from Nicaragua, Colombia, Turkey, Africa, and more. The ending of title 42 on May 11th is causing an increase in migrants crossing the region. There have been reports of chicken pox outbreaks in some of the camps. The situation is overwhelming authorities, and the mayor has declared an emergency. Migrants are trying to reach cities like Denver, Houston, and Chicago, but many don't have the money for transportation. Downtown El Paso is filled with migrants. Stay tuned for updates on this ongoing situation.

The Biden administration is flying migrants from South America to the United States, regardless of documentation, aiding human trafficking. Most lack documentation.

This remote stretch of the border has become increasingly busy, with a 140% increase in migrant apprehensions in the past year. Smugglers have been cutting through the border wall, creating breaches that the border patrol is struggling to address. Our cameras captured one of these breaches, where smugglers hid their faces. This is not an isolated incident, as another breach was discovered and repaired today.

The number of migrants arriving at the US-Mexico border is unprecedented, with Chinese migrants being the fastest growing group. Many Chinese migrants, including middle-class individuals, are using a 4-foot gap in the border fence to enter the United States. Over a span of four days, nearly 600 migrants from various countries, including China, India, Vietnam, and Afghanistan, passed through this hole unchecked. The migrants, who learned about this entryway through TikTok, are seeking political asylum and are willing to pay smugglers around $400 for transportation. The journey is often expensive, with one woman selling her house to cover the $14,000 cost. The migrants are released into the US within 72 hours and can begin the process of filing an asylum claim.

Over 8,000 migrants have started walking in a new caravan from the southern border of Tapachula. The Mexican Institute of Immigration and the Commission of Refugees have closed operations since September, causing a bottleneck. The majority of migrants are from Cuba, Haiti, and Venezuela, with the goal of reaching the United States. The migrants are demanding transit permits and humanitarian visas, but it is unclear why operations were closed. The migrants plan to walk along the coast until they receive a response from the Mexican government. They are the poorest of the poor, unable to afford visas or smugglers, and are moving in the name of God.

A large caravan of 3,000 migrants began walking towards the U.S. after Donald Trump was elected president. Mexican authorities intervened, warning them of potential dangers and encouraging them to return and follow proper processes. Many migrants expressed disappointment over Trump's victory, fearing increased deportations. Mexico is now actively discouraging caravans, a shift from the previous administration's approach. Trump previously threatened tariffs on Mexican goods, which prompted action from the Mexican government. With Trump back in power, he warned of even higher tariffs if the situation continues. Despite this, a significant influx of migrants is expected at the borders in the coming months.

A large group of migrants left their shelter in Just at sunset and walked for an hour in the darkness to reach the crossing point at the river. They were guided by GPS coordinates obtained from forklift tractors that raised razor wire last October. The migrants expressed anger towards Mexican authorities for sending them to cross into this dangerous area of the river at Nike. These GPS-guided caravans have become more frequent in Eagle Pass this November.

In the last 24 hours, there were 9,300 migrant encounters at the border, totaling 45,000 encounters in the past 5 days. New York and Arizona are unable to accommodate more illegal aliens due to financial and space constraints. The suggestion of "remain in Mexico" is brought up as a solution, which was effective before January 2021. However, under the Biden administration, this approach no longer seems to work.

President Biden has seen a surge in illegal border crossings, causing strain on southern border states. This has led to challenges in immigration and border security.

Large groups of migrants continue to cross into Eagle Pass, even at the end of the year. We joined one of the caravans that crossed in December. The migrants showed us the GPS they used to find a location on the Rio Grande. Mexican soldiers were waiting to guard their crossing. The area has seen a high number of crossings, but Mexican authorities have recently reduced the arrival of migrants.

In the last 24 hours, over 10,000 illegal immigrants have been apprehended by border patrol, with the numbers continuing to rise. The border patrol facilities in Tucson, Arizona are currently operating at 200% capacity. Governor Katie Hobbs of Arizona has not sent any state resources to help with the situation, unlike Governor Greg Abbott of Texas. Governor Hobbs is calling for more federal action and comprehensive immigration reform. Additionally, narcotics are also being smuggled into the country, as seen with the seizure of over 1 million fentanyl pills in Nogales, Arizona. GOP presidential candidate Ron DeSantis promises to use lethal force against cartel members cutting through the border wall. The situation remains chaotic in Lukeville, the epicenter of the border crisis.

There is a persecution against pro-migrant activists due to the inability to control migrant flows, benefiting only organized crime. Migrants have limited options, risking their lives in caravans or tractor trailers. Over 400 migrants disappeared in 2023 trying to reach the United States.

A large group of Haitian migrants in Mexico are pushing through a refugee center, causing chaos and trampling officials. They are seeking expedited humanitarian visas to travel to the US-Mexico border. Border patrol has been bringing in buses to process the migrants, and they are constructing a processing facility due to the high number of people. It is worth noting that the migrants are choosing to cross illegally instead of using the legal port of entry as advised by the Biden administration. Once processed, the migrants are expected to be released into the United States.
