3 Migrants Drown at Border Amid Dispute Between Texas, White House.

Two children were among the three migrants who perished in the Rio Grande near Eagle Pass, Texas. Amid ongoing tensions over immigration policy between U.S. President Joe Biden's administration and Texas Governor Greg Abbott, military officers in Texas stopped federal border officials from helping the migrants. This led to the incident. Tensions with the federal government increased when the Texas National Guard erected more barriers in the area, which is not a legitimate port of entry. Authorities in Mexico retrieved the migrants' bodies.
