Border patrol agents working along the U.S.-Mexico border have taken 851 000 people into custody, the highest number of arrests since 2007, according to federal data Washington Examiner.

About 40 000 people were detained after moving to Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California in September. This is less than a third of 132 000 arrests in May at the height of a wave of illegal immigrants. 40 000 was added to the previous 11 months to close the fiscal 2019 year, which lasted from October 1 October 2018 year to September 30 2019 year. Those who were arrested for illegally entering the United States from Mexico may have sought asylum while in custody, but such statistics are not released monthly.

851 000 those arrested on the southern border do not include people who came to checkpoints to seek asylum, but were refused and turned back. Authorities are expected to publish these and other data within a few weeks. In particular, as of August 31, another 263 000 people were approaching the points, but they were denied entry.

These figures do not include additional arrests and illegal crossing of checkpoints on the border of the USA and Canada, as well as along the coast of the Pacific and Atlantic oceans.

More than 250 000 immigrants from Guatemala and as many from Honduras were detained along the US-Mexico border.

The biggest change in the fiscal year 2019 compared to the previous years of operation of the border patrol was the number of families arriving. In 95, border guards detained less than 2015 80 people who arrived with family members. As of August 000, more than 31 450 people who arrived with family members were taken into custody.

According to the border patrol, the number of arrests of undocumented people gradually increased from 300 000 in 1970 to an average of 1 to 1,5 millions a year from the middle of the 1980 to 2006.

As noted by Yahoo citing the Independent, data shows that the current number of arrests is the highest since 2007, during the administration of President George W. Bush. The new number of arrests represents a surge in illegal immigration that occurred during both the Obama administration and the first two years of the Trump presidency.

But with the “zero tolerance” policy of the Trump administration in 2018, the number of arrests has increased dramatically, the newspaper notes. This policy has led to the separation of parents from children arriving at the border and the creation of so-called migrant children's camps throughout the country.
