Mexican authorities found 14 drowned migrants in the border area between Coahuila and Texas in January. Unlike the case from earlier this year, where Texas became a political target over the drowning of three migrants, the other nine drownings have been largely ignored by U.S. news outlets.
This week, authorities on both sides of the border reported three migrants drownings, including that of a young girl. In the city of Piedras Negras, Coahuila, alone, authorities found the bodies of six migrants, while in total, they found 14 throughout the border region. The drownings come as the city of Eagle Pass, Texas, and the Del Rio Border Patrol Sector have become immigration hotspots with historical record-setting figures under the current Biden administration.
One drowning took place on Thursday afternoon near the Centinela rural community near Eagle Pass. In that case, authorities responded to the scene and called their counterparts in Texas after finding the body of an unidentified man floating on the north side of the river.
