Evelio Contreras/CNNBut now there are patrols from the Mexican Army and National Guard along with immigration officers, looking to stop the migrants from reaching the US.
Tents at the border wall become temporary homes for those sent to patrol then land around Ejido Jacumé.
These people were stopped before they reached the Mexico-US border, officials said.
CNN witnessed the detention of mostly men, with some women and children, from Brazil and Guatemala this week, near one of the border wall gaps close to Ejido Jacumé.
