| Deadly climate threatens migrants in Arizona's desert |
| As the usual hot summer approaches in Arizona, migrants entering the U.S. illegally face tough challenges and death as they cross remote areas through the desert. Human smugglers or "coyotes" conceal these extreme climate conditions, and immigrants also tend to underestimate the risks. The Tucson Sector Border Patrol highlighted these threats during a two-day event that took journalists to remote areas near Sasabe, Arizona. There, they had a real opportunity to witness first-hand the dangers that await people crossing into Arizona illegally. Border Patrol agents also gave members of the Media a tour along the U.S.-Mexico border fence in the city of Nogales, Arizona. After this direct experience, Barriozona Magazine warns would-be immigrants not to cross. |
