Migrant Detention Center Fire Exposes Inhumane Conditions and Fatal Consequences.

The recent fire at an immigration processing center in Ciudad Juárez, which killed at least 40 people, highlights the inhumane conditions faced by migrants due to decades of failed immigration policies by the U.S. and Mexico. The Trump-era policy, Title 42, which expels migrants from the U.S.-Mexico border, has only exacerbated the situation. Migrant advocates accuse law enforcement of abuse and violence against migrants, and the militarized presence has intensified tensions on the ground. Anti-immigrant sentiments are spreading among local residents, who complain about feeling outnumbered by the South Americans.
