Satellite images taken on April 25, 2019 show rapid construction activity in anticipation of increased family and child detention in tents built at the El Paso and Donna, Texas Border Patrol Stations since April 14, 2019. The new tents are highlighted in red. A Border Patrol official told the New York Times the agency could hold families for up to 20 days. Human Rights Watch will monitor changes in construction activity at these sites in coming weeks.
