U.S. Border Patrol accused of destroying water left for migrants

A humanitarian group has accused U.S. Border Patrol agents of destroying thousands of water jugs left out for migrants in an 800-square-mile desert corridor near the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona.


The group, No More Deaths, published a report, "Interference with Humanitarian Aid: Death and Disappearance on the US-Mexico Border," with La Coalición de Derechos Humanos, which implicates the U.S. Border Patrol in vandalizing most of more than 3,000 gallons of the water, saying agents are the only ones who have regular access to all land jurisdictions where vandalism occurred.
