An FBI spokesperson said the agency “has not identified a specific terrorism plot associated with foreign nationals who recently entered the United States at the southern border.”
Aug. 30, 2023, 3:55 AM UTCThe FBI and other law enforcement agencies are investigating a group of Uzbek nationals who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border and claimed asylum in the United States this year afterfound they were assisted by a human trafficker with connections to a U.S. designated “foreign terrorist organization,” federal officials have confirmed to NBC News.
According to Department of Homeland Security officials, the Uzbek migrants all went through routine screening by Customs and Border Protection agents when they entered the U.S. and there was no intelligence in any of the government’s terror databases that indicated any of them presented a threat. They were subsequently released into the U.S. pending their court dates.
Officials told NBC News that at most the smuggler sympathized with ISIS and did not help the migrants for any terrorism purposes. Nonetheless, the FBI is still looking for some of the migrants.
