Trump Deployed Thousands Of Troops To Stop Migrant Caravans

Description

Thousands of US troops have deployed to the US-Mexico border to support border agents as migrant caravans march through Mexico. The first caravans began to reach border towns on Tuesday. The troops have been building barriers and hardening ports of entry. However, the US military says it does not have a clear plan for what to do when the migrants arrive. Pentagon officials now called the mission "border support" in place of the previous name "Operation Faithful Patriot." Media reports said the first one hundred migrants began to arrive near Tijuana on Tuesday.
