The large groups – each with over 100 migrants – have been apprehended since Thursday in Hidalgo and Starr counties, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials report.
Four of the groups were encountered in Starr County, which is west of Hidalgo County, and is the No. 1 area for drug seizures on the Southwest border.
“Our Border Patrol agents continue to be vigilant in their duties to secure the border day in and day out and treat everyone they encounter with dignity and respect, in stark contrast with the transnational criminal organizations who consistently place financial gain above human life,” RGV Sector Chief Patrol Agent Gloria Chavez said.
