Footage filmed on the Mexican side of the border circulating on social media shows the intense scene as criminal trespassers scaled a small chain-link fence topped with barbed wire, prompting hundreds to enter the US illegally.
“Hundreds of migrants were pushed south of the concertina wire in the middle of the night by Texas National Guard,” documented journalist J. Omar Ornelas, adding, “Hours later they again breached the concertina and made a rush for the border wall in El Paso, Texas.”

Ornelas also noted the illegal invaders hailed from Africa, Central América, Colombia, and Venezuela.
The rush of illegals breaching the border comes as the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday moved to temporarily block the state from enforcing a bill allowing Texas to arrest and deport illegal immigrants.
