Illegal aliens on America’s terrorist watchlist are crossing America’s southern border, including at least two from Iran so far this month, authorities say.
Since Oct. 1, U.S. Customs and Border Protection has apprehended at least four Iranians at the border who are on the watchlist, officially called the Terrorist Screening Data Base.
The number does not include an unknown number of “gotaways” who successfully evaded Border Patrol agents and entered the interior of the U.S.
The terrorist watchlist includes “individuals who represent a potential threat to the United States, including known affiliates of watchlisted individuals,” according to CBP.
