Although the number of people attempting to cross the border but apprehended by US authorities has declined in recent months, increased security on the US-Mexican border in recent years has pushed migrants to take increasingly perilous routes, migration advocates said.
Grupo Beta, which assists migrants on the Mexican side of the border, said it rescued 450 people whose lives were in danger during the first seven months of 2024 and recovered 34 bodies.
