On Monday, a large group of migrants camping out in Juárez attempted to rush across the southern border into the United States, the El Paso Times reported. The migrants retreated into Mexico when Border Patrol officials responded to the tense exchange by firing crowd-control projectiles.
Venezuelan migrants recently expelled from the U.S. as a part of the Biden administration's new agreement with Mexico have set up a massive tent city along the southern bank of the Rio Grande. The migrants remain close to the border in hopes that they will have a chance to cross into the U.S. soon.
Since October 12, the United States has returned approximately 1,800 illegal Venezuelan migrants to Mexico. The Mexican government granted the expelled migrants a 180-day visa. Juárez Mayor Cruz Pérez Cuellar is now pressuring the Mexican federal government to also issue work authorization for the influx of new arrivals.
