  • Shelters in Sonora state are overwhelmed, turning away migrants due to lack of space.
  • Tijuana shelters report minimal change, with few deportees arriving since policy implementation.
  • New asylum rules trigger a daily deportation rate of up to 500 migrants from Arizona.
  • Mexican authorities are relocating unauthorized individuals further south to manage border congestion.
  • Advocates express concern over prolonged shelter stays as migrants await CBP One appointments.
