DEL RIO, Texas — More than 10,000 migrants who were camped under a bridge have been processed by Border Patrol agents since last Saturday as the Biden administration moves to clear out the site, the Washington Examiner has learned.

As of 5 p.m. local time Friday, 10,000 people who waded across the Rio Grande from Acuna, Mexico, to Del Rio have had their information entered into Border Patrol’s tracking system over the past seven days, according to data reviewed by the Washington Examiner on Friday evening.
