Story

In October 2024, 124 Iranian nationals were apprehended by Border Patrol agents at the southwest border. This figure marks a significant increase, over 150 percent, compared to the same timeframe the previous year. The report indicates an ongoing trend, with Iranian nationals and other Special Interest Aliens entering the U.S. illegally with no signs of decreasing. Most of these individuals are subsequently released into the country to apply for asylum. This development raises security concerns among officials, especially given the historical context of Iranian threats, including plots against former President Donald Trump.
