On the 31st (local time), according to foreign media such as Fox News, the US border patrol released a video of two smuggling agents pushing two young Ecuadorian sisters under the border barrier and then running away. This was an incident that took place in the border area between the desert of New Mexico and Mexico, which was captured by patrols’ surveillance cameras.

Amid an increasing number of illegal immigrants trying to smuggle into the United States, a scene where smuggling brokers inadvertently drop a 3-year-old or 5-year-old child under a 4-meter-high border barrier is controversial.

The smuggling brokers approaching the border barrier from the Mexican side sat down on a 14-foot (4.26 m)-high barrier and dropped the children like a pack. The children who fell across the border to the United States were traumatized in shock. Only after 20 seconds had passed, I managed to stand up. The brokers threw their children’s belongings over the wall and ran without looking back.

“The smuggling brokers brutally dropped the children who had done nothing wrong,” said Gloria Chavez, head of the border patrol team’s El Paso.

Police are working with Mexican authorities to investigate brokers. Recently, in Texas, a smuggling broker dumped a six-month-old baby in the Rio Grande River near the border. The child was rescued by a Texas patrol. The mother and child reunited with the help of the border patrol.

The U.S. border patrol said the number of casualties is increasing rapidly as the number of smugglers from Central America has recently increased. On the 20th, a 9-year-old Mexican girl who was crossing the Rio Grande with her mother was drowned and died. According to the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP), 82 people have died while crossing the border in the last six months since October last year.

Fox News said that since the inauguration of the Joe Biden administration, the number of minors crossing the border without guardians has increased.
