According to data from Customs and Border Protection, seventeen individuals encountered in November were reported to be on the FBI’s terror watchlist.
This is only an indication of the gravity of the situation; there are likely more terrorists entering the United States due to current policies under Joe Biden’s administration.
Fox News reported:
There were 17 encounters of people between ports of entry at the southern border on the FBI’s terror watch list in November, according to data released Friday by Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
It brings the total of people encountered by the Border Patrol between ports of entry on the watch list to 30 for FY 24, which began in October.
The watch list, now officially called the Terrorist Screening Dataset, is the U.S. database that contains information on terrorist identities and includes not only known or suspected terrorists but also affiliates of watch-listed individuals.
The CBP San Diego Field Office recently issued a bulletin to its officers warning of potential terrorists attempting to gain entry into the U.S. through the southern border.
This warning comes as no surprise, given that Fiscal Year 2023 set a record with over 160 people encountered at the border who were on the terror watchlist – a significant increase from the under 100 recorded in 2022.
These warnings come amidst heightened tensions across Israel and Palestine, potentially inspiring Hamas, Hezbollah, and other Jihadists to seek entry into our nation via its most vulnerable point of access.
The bulletin also outlines potential indicators of terrorist intent such as single travelers with undetermined return plans and regional affiliations to areas of known terrorist activity.
It is clear that without proper security measures in place, our borders remain dangerously exposed to any individual or group seeking to do us harm.
As such, it is essential for authorities to remain vigilant in order to protect both national security and American lives from possible terrorist attacks.
NEW: Per CBP sources, CBP’s San Diego field office sent out this internal intel bulletin on Friday, alerting officers that Hamas, Hezbollah, & Palestinian Islamic Jihad foreign fighters inspired by the Israel conflict may be encountered at the U.S. southern border.
