More than 10,000 immigrants gathered under the Del Rio-Ciudad Acuna International Bridge at the Mexican border to cross into USA. The bridge connects the US state of Texas and Ciudad Acuna, Mexico where immigrants camped underneath. The immigrants face food and water shortages, and some return to Mexico for basic supplies under 37C degrees. The US Border Patrol announced that the number of staff at Del Rio was increased to facilitate the processing of immigrants waiting to be taken to the facilities. Among the Haitians, the immigrants consist of Cubans, Venezuelans and Nicaraguans.
