DEL RIO , Sept 20 — US border agents began expelling plane-loads of mostly Haitian migrants from a large makeshift camp they had set up after wading across the Rio Grande separating Mexico and the United States, with repatriation flights arriving in Haiti yesterday.
US Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz told a news conference in Del Rio, Texas, that over the next week the government aims to “quickly” process 12,662 migrants from underneath the bridge that links Del Rio with Ciudad Acuña, Mexico. Migrants were continuing to cross the river over the weekend despite heightened security on the US side that included horse-mounted agents, one of whom charged his horse to block migrants andAt least 100 Haitians, including families with small children, crossed back into Mexico from under the bridge yesterday evening, gripping a yellow rope stretched across the river that had risen to chest level.
A bus escorted by US border agents entered the Del Rio airport earlier yesterday, and a group could be seen boarding a Coast Guard plane. A police source said the people were migrants and a source familiar with airport operations said the aircraft was heading to El Paso, Texas. On Saturday, Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry said “arrangements have already been made” to receive those who were being returned to the Caribbean nation.
A sweeping US public health order known as Title 42, issued under the Trump administration at the beginning of the pandemic, allows most migrants to be quickly expelled without a chance to claim asylum.
