Migrants attempt to cross Rio Grande on Mexico-US border near buoys

Migrants attempt to cross the Rio Grande on the Mexico-US border from the Mexican town of Piedras Negras near a floating barrier installed by Texas authorities.

The buoys were installed in the Rio Grande River at the popular migrant crossing point on the instructions of Texas Governor Greg Abbott, along with large razor-wire barriers on shore. Two bodies have been found in the river in recent days near where the buoys were installed.
