According to data provided to Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin by Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the U.S. southern border is experiencing a daily influx of over 10,000 illegal aliens. These startling figures, which do not account for known and unknown ‘gotaways,’ suggest that the actual number of illegal border crossings could be significantly higher.
Melugin’s report on Tuesday highlighted the severity of the situation. “Per CBP sources, there were over 10,000 migrant encounters at the southern border yesterday, including 8,500+ illegal immigrants apprehended by BP, & 1,600+ at ports of entry. 168 Chinese nationals crossed in San Diego sector as well. This was the second day in a row of 10k+,” Melugin reported on Twitter.

In California, border agents apprehended a large number of Chinese nationals on Monday, many of whom were described as well-dressed males of military age. Melugin, reporting from Lukeville, Arizona, identified this location as the “epicenter” of the border crisis, where thousands of illegal immigrants have been flooding the area and camping on the U.S. side of the border barrier.

Furthermore, NewsNation correspondent Ali Bradley cited CBP sources who reported that more than 242,500 ‘encounters’ were logged last month – the highest tally ever for November and one of the busiest months at the border in U.S. history. Bradley shared this information in a Twitter post, underscoring the unprecedented scale of the migration crisis.

The Tucson Sector of the Border Patrol, covering the Lukeville area, remains the busiest, with more than 64,000 encounters in November alone. This ongoing chaos along the U.S.-Mexico border, as regularly reported by Infowars, presents a significant challenge to border security and immigration policy in the United States.
