Tijuana.- Around 7 in the morning it was reported that a group of about 50 migrants were between the limitations of both walls in North American lands. This event took place at the heights of the international avenue in front of the junction towards the El Soler neighborhood in front of the well-known El Mirador hotel.

The migrants, mostly from the state of Brazil and Colombia, entered irregularly through the border wall in order to request asylum and refuge from the American authorities.
