According to a Reuters investigation, there has been an increase in sexual violence against Migrants at the Mexico Border cities of Reynosa and Matamoros as they await entry into the US. The report includes interviews with sexual assault survivors and aid workers, as well as data from the Mexican government. The new system implemented by the Biden administration, requiring migrants to secure appointments to enter the US legally, has unintentionally contributed to the spike in violence. Criminal groups are demanding payment from migrants, and rape is often part of the torture process to extort money.
