The aerial footage captured by Fox News’ Flight Team shows the massive line snaking its way late Sunday from Matamoros to Brownsville, where US agents are reportedly seeing 2,000 migrants entering each day.
In the first four days of May, more than 8,000 asylum seekers have already made their way into the US from Mexico along the entire southern border, the news outlet reported, citing Customs and Border Protection sources. Officials expected that number to soar to as many as 14,000 a day when the pandemic-era emergency measure that allowed for the rapid expulsion of some 2.8 million asylum seekers since March 2020 expires on Thursday.
