Palestinian Migrants Attempting To Cross Border Found To Have Possible Terrorist Ties
Palestinian TERROR Suspects Caught at Border
Three Palestinian migrants who had entered the country illegally were detained by border authorities earlier this month when it was discovered that they may have connections to terrorist groups, according to sources.
Federal law enforcement officials said one of the migrants had “salacious photos” on their phone, one of which showed a man wearing a mask while holding an AK-47 rifle.
Apart from the trio of Palestinians, federal authorities apprehended a single Turkish immigrant who was perhaps associated with terrorist organizations.
According to accounts, the migrants were part of groups of several dozen who turned themselves into border officers in the San Diego sector.
According to sources, there is an ongoing inquiry into the immigration. The FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force is looking into the group’s cases after it was moved to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It’s the most recent instance of possible security risks reaching the United States across the southern border, particularly in San Diego.
Agents from the Border Patrol who are overworked claim to The Post that they lack the resources necessary to thoroughly screen the migrants who enter the country, especially from the San Diego region. They can mostly only identify which migrants might pose a threat to American security by using US terror watchlists and other US resources. Terrorist and criminal databases from other nations are not accessible to border agents.
An inquiry for comment from Customs and Border Protection was not immediately answered.
Which terrorist group the migrants were reportedly a part of is unknown.
But following the Oct. 7 Hamas terror strike on Israel, border officers in the San Diego area were alerted to be on the watch for those associated with Palestinian terrorist organizations.
The migrants entered the country within a few weeks after the Biden administration implemented new regulations that limit their capacity to apply for asylum; yet, the executive order contains significant flaws that permit the migrants to be let back into the nation.
The largest gaps exist in the San Diego region because immigrants arriving from over 100 nations that refuse to deport their citizens are free from restrictions and have access to the asylum process.
