3 Suspected Palestinian Terror Suspects Caught After Illegally Crossing Border into California
SUMMARY
San Diego Sector Border Patrol agents recently apprehended three suspected Palestinian terrorists after they illegally crossed from Mexico into California. One of the suspects reportedly had an incriminating photo of a masked man with an AK-47. Additionally, a Turkish migrant with potential terrorist connections was also detained. While U.S. Customs and Border Protection could not confirm the details, the report suggests a significant increase in apprehensions of Special Interest Aliens (SIAs) from high-risk regions. These suspects were transferred to ICE and the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force for further investigation. In the first half of fiscal 2024, nearly 25,000 SIAs were apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border, highlighting growing security concerns.
