The U.S. Border Patrol is warning migrants the border remains closed to illegal entries.

December 19, 2024 – EAGLE PASS—Two illegal aliens told Texas National Guard soldiers that the reported “International Migrants Day” crossing rumors were being pushed all throughout Mexico via television and social media. When questioned by Texas National Guardsmen about their age, they said that they were 30 years old and 27 years old, respectively. They were part of a 1,000-person caravan that splintered into various smaller groups to reach the border. 

The foreign nationals also said that the “International Migrants Day” crossing period actually spans more than one day. For example, one timeline they gave was that it will run between December 18th and 24th. 

A Texas National Guard soldier reported that the illegal aliens believed that they would not be apprehended by Mexican immigration authorities or the US Border Patrol.

The Texas National Guardsmen turned the two men away and Texas Scorecard last saw them walking up the riverside looking for an opening in the fencing.
