(FOX) Spring breakers have gathered near the southern border, seemingly unaware of safety concerns for both travel and crime happening nearby in Mexico.
The U.S. Mission to Mexico posted a fresh warning last week, noting that “Each year, thousands of U.S. citizens visit Mexico during spring break.” Among the various concerns ongoing in the country, the mission listed violent crime, drugs, unregulated alcohol and sexual assault.
The mission also pointed to a travel advisory from October 2022 in which the U.S. State Department warned against travel to the states of Colima, Guerrero, Michoacán, Sinaloa, Tamaulipas and Zacatecas, while suggesting that Americans reconsider travel to another half-dozen states.
But spring breakers continue to gather near the border, some of them seemed aware of the dangers ongoing in Mexico while others appeared to not know or even care.

(TownHall.COM) Up to 1,000 illegal immigrants attempted to storm into El Paso, Texas from Juarez, Mexico on Sunday through the Paso del Norte International Bridge, forcing U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the Mexican military to shutdown public access for hours.
The large group at first made it past Mexican officials on their side of the bridge but were stopped when CBP placed barricades and stationed officers in riot gear to block their path.
The bridge was eventually cleared of the group with the help from the Mexican military.
The bridge is one of the ports of entry used by Americans and Mexicans to legally enter the United States and Mexico in the El Paso-Juarez region. Many rely on the bridge to go to work or to school.
Despite the Biden administration using the CBP One app, there are still tens of thousands of migrants waiting in Mexico who are unable to secure appointments to be…

She added that the use of drones for such purposes is not an isolated incident.
“It’s definitely become a trend here in the San Diego Sector,” Ibarra said. “We’ve detected where they’re just flying along on the south side of the border. We’ve also detected them when they fly north.”
Border Patrol agents discovered the use of drones after an investigation in January led them to a stash house in National City, California, near the San Ysidro Port of Entry. Within the stash house, agents discovered…
