In Eagle Pass, Texas, migrants cross the Rio Grande River that separates the United States and Mexico to encounter an almost impassable wall of razor wire preventing them from entering US territory.
Men, women and children walk on the US side of the US-Mexico border after crossing the Rio Grande river that divides the two countries, before surrendering and being processed by US Customs and Border Protection agents. The US is readying its response to an expected surge of migrants seeking to enter as tens of thousands of people are waiting at crossing points for the end of pandemic-era rules that had forbidden virtually all asylum claims at the border. The so-called Title 42 expires overnight Thursday into Friday. IMAGES
Migrants in Mexico, rush to cross into the United States, thinking they will not be able to enter after May 11, when the Title 42 law will be lifted. The measure was adopted under former president Donald Trump and allowed the Border Patrol to almost immediately expel border crossers back into Mexico or their origin countries without accepting their migration petitions. The Biden administration hopes a mix of incentives and punishments will prevent migrants from pushing across the border en masse after May 11.
