We have a total deployment, between the National Guard and army units, of 14,000, almost 15,000 men in the north of the country, Defense Minister Luis Cresencio Sandoval said at a press conference alongside President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
Asked whether those forces were detaining migrants to prevent them from crossing, Sandoval replied: Yes.
Given that [undocumented] migration is not a crime but rather an administrative violation, we simply detain them and turn them over to the authorities at the National Migration Institute, he said.
The government has faced criticism for stopping migrants from crossing the US-Mexican border.

I’d love to see the eventual result of these invaders who’ve been ‘turned over to the (Mexican) authorities’.
Is it like a revolving door back into the USA?
I need Brian’s drone to go check things out, at this National Migration Institute :-)
