People on the terrorist watch list have been nabbed trying to cross the border as part of the new surge of migrants, congressional Republicans revealed during a trip to the border Monday.
They said agents reported having caught migrants from Yemen, Iran and Sri Lanka, amid the much larger numbers of Haitians, Central Americans and others.
“Individuals that they have on the watch list for terrorism are now starting to exploit the southern border,” Rep. John Katko of New York, the top Republican on the House Homeland Security Committee, said as he stood near a section of border wall in El Paso, Texas.
