Nearly 2,000 minors separated from families at U.S. border: AP
Nearly 2,000 children have been separated from their families at the U.S. border over a six-week period during a crackdown on illegal entries, the Associated Press reported Friday, citing Department of Homeland Security figures. AP said the figures show that 1,995 minors were separated from 1,940 adults from April 19 through May 31. Department of Homeland Security officials are now referring all cases of illegal entry for criminal prosecution, under a "zero tolerance" policy announced by Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
