An Indian laborer in Israel was killed and several other migrant workers injured on March 4, 2024, in a missile attack launched from Lebanon by Hamas-aligned Hezbollah. They are not the first migrant workers in Israel to get caught up in the monthslong fighting.

Biden's border visit is to try to highlight El Paso, Texas, as a model for what can be done with the immense task of migration management, a White House official said President Joe Biden visited the U.S.- Mexico border on Sunday, his first trip since taking office, with a stop in El Paso, Texas, before he heads to Mexico City ahead of the North American leaders' summit. According to a White House official, Biden wanted to highlight El Paso as a model for what can be done with the immense task of migration management in the face of intense challenges the city has faced. In the past month, El Paso has become an epicenter for the ongoing surge of people arriving to the U.S. in the south.
