Migrants, mainly unaccompanied children or family groups, now being flown by government to El Paso amid shortage of facilities
Shelter organizers in the west Texas border city of El Paso are scrambling to open up capacity for children crossing alone into the US from Mexico, as a surge of unaccompanied minors has been met with a shortage of facilities in the ongoing pandemic.
Migrants, mainly unaccompanied children or family groups, are now being flown by the federal government from the Rio Grande Valley in south-east Texas to El Paso in an attempt to deal with a situation.
