The United States Customs and Border Protection Agency (CBP) reported on the 1st that there were a large number of illegal immigrants trying to break into the Texas border. The border police took a siege to force the immigrants back to the river bank. Among them, some people held the Venezuelan flag to attack, but their identity could not be confirmed at present.
According to Fox News, the conflict was recorded by the public. The film showed that the police used "pepper balls" to drive away, and the rejected people had to slide down the hillside. One of them tried to attack the police with the Venezuelan flag, and was later driven to the opposite bank of the river.
CBP responded that government agencies were investigating this. One immigrant attacked the police with a flagpole, and another immigrant threw stones at the agent and injured a policeman. The CBP then authorized measures to push migrants back into the river. It is not clear where these immigrants come from. According to the report, these authorization methods include the use of pepper balls with low lethal force for displacement.
Since the beginning of 2021, the immigration problem in the United States has continued to ferment. Last month, the border police arrested more than 50 large groups consisting of 100 or more immigrants. Many of the illegal immigrants are from Venezuela, but in the near future, it seems that President Joe Biden tightened the immigration policy due to the mid-term election of the United States, resulting in a large number of illegal immigrants being repatriated.
