TL;DR Summary

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has temporarily suspended international railway crossing operations in El Paso and Eagle Pass to redirect personnel to assist with migrant intake and processing. This decision comes after a surge in the number of migrants arriving via trains from the interior of Mexico. CBP is taking additional actions to address the increase in smuggling organizations moving migrants through Mexico, including partnering with Mexican authorities. Operational adjustments have been made to process the newly arrived migrants, and vehicle processing in Eagle Pass and pedestrian operations in San Diego's San Ysidro have also been suspended.
