Mexican officials fear border entry shutdowns amid migrant influx

Mexico’s top officials fear another U.S.-Mexico border closure as the Juarez-El Paso border crossing has seen 2,000 illegal crossings each day.

Officials are concerned this will lead to another border entry point shutdown like the one in Eagle Pass last week.

Over 1,000 migrants — mostly Venezuelans — have been waiting in long lines at the border, waiting to turn themselves in to Border Patrol agents on the El Paso side.
