“More than 10,000 Haitian migrants seeking shelter under a bridge in Del Rio, Texas will be deported by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, according to reports by NBC News.

ICE is scheduled to fly eight deportation flights to Haiti with plans to increase the number to 10 per week. Over the past few days, deportation flights began in response to the large number of Haitians entering the U.S. One single deportation flight can hold around 135 migrants, Department of Homeland Security officials said.

“This temporary closure and shift is necessary in order for CBP to respond to urgent safety and security needs presented by an influx of migrants into Del Rio and is effective immediately,” the agency noted. “It will advance and protect national interests and help ensure the safety of the traveling public, commercial traffic, and CBP employees and facilities.””
