Migrants continue the dangerous practice of crossing the Straits of Florida in small homemade boats. The boats are usually overloaded with migrants attempting to make their way from Cuba and Haiti to the United States.
These 46 migrants are in addition to the 5,210 migrants apprehended by Miami Sector Border Patrol agents during the first six months of Fiscal Year 23 . This year’s total already exceeded the total of the last two fiscal years combined when agents apprehended 5,040 migrants.
During the past 12 months, Miami Sector agents apprehended 7,771 migrants according to the CBP Nationwide Encounters Report. These apprehensions do not include the thousands of mostly Cuban and Haitian migrants interdicted at sea by U.S. Coast Guard crews. On April 24, a Coast Guard aircrew spotted a “rustic vessel” overloaded with migrants approximately 40 miles of the coast of Key West. The Coast Guard Cutter Hamilton’s crew arrived as the boat began taking on water and rescued the migrants from possible drowning.
