Migrants of different nationalities, mainly from Central and South America, who make up the so-called 'Viacrucis Migrante,' receive humanitarian attention at the Venustiano Carranza Sports Center in Oaxaca, Oaxaca State, Mexico, on May 10.

U.S. officials received information on the stash house after two migrants crossed into Santa Teresa, New Mexico, on June 8 and turned themselves in to Border Patrol agents. They reported being kidnapped, but released after paying ransoms, and showed agents burns and wounds from beatings while in captivity.

Migrants also must pay one of three criminal organizations in Ciudad Juárez to cross the U.S. border between ports of entry -- providing a code word as proof of payment. This extortion sometimes occurs"in an area near the border, under the threat of bodily harm" -- within sight of the Texas National Guard, the report said.

A source familiar with immigration in Ciudad Juárez attributed the upswing in violence against migrants to the aftermath of an April 2023 fire at the city's migrant detention center, in which 40 migrants died locked in their cells.
