Over 100,000 migrants encountered at southern border in September
(NewsNation) — A total of 101,385 migrants were encountered at the southern border in September, bringing the total to more than 2 million reported for this fiscal year.
In the Del Rio, Texas, sector Friday, NewsNation crews saw two different groups of over 100 people cross the border into the Eagle Pass area, just outside of Shelby Park even though Gov. Greg Abbott has that area fortified.
The group was made up of people from Venezuela, Honduras and the Dominican Republic. Among them were 17 unaccompanied children.
In the same area, a group of 165 migrants from places designated as “special interest” countries by the United States were apprehended by the Texas Department of Public Safety and Border Patrol last week. Places the migrants were from included Iran, Egypt, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
