Immigrants are more likely to die from the heat on the border of the United States and Mexico

Over the past nine months, the number of immigrants dying from the intense heat on the border between the United States and Mexico has increased by 55%.

Гибель от жары — основная причина смертельных случаев среди мигрантов на юго-западной границе США, в октябре-июне 2017-2018 года из-за этого погибли 48 иммигрантов, по сравнению с 31 за тот же период годом ранее, пишет The New York Post.

It is expected that the death toll in the summer will increase due to higher air temperatures.

Experts attribute the increase in mortality to the increase in the number of immigrants trying to get into the United States, as well as the tightening of immigration policy, which leads to the need for a longer stay of immigrants at the border or in non-equipped temporary housing facilities.

The border patrol recorded an 12-percent increase in the number of arrests of immigrants during the eight months that ended on May 31.

Before 2014, the vast majority of migrants arrested at the border were Mexicans. But with the improvement of economic conditions in Mexico, their number has decreased. According to the US government, immigrants from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador now head the list of people who are most often arrested on the southern border of the country. Residents of these states are fleeing gang violence.

Снизилось и общее количество арестов на границе — до 303 916 в 2017 году, что на 26% меньше, чем в 2016 году.

Despite the fact that the number of arrests at the border has decreased, the United Nations International Organization for Migration has registered an increase in the number of migrant deaths on the American border in the last 4 of the year. In total, 2017 people died in the heat on the southern US border in 415.

People arrive at the border depleted, they have poor nutrition there, so they are very susceptible to heat in an unusual climate. Particularly affected by this are children and families, whose number has recently increased.

Количество семей, задержанных на границе в 2017 году, в 5 раз превышает этот показатель по состоянию на 2013 год, а число несопровождаемых детей, задержанных в 2017 году, — вдвое больше, чем в 2010 году.
