Many <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>eared to be Venezuelan, by their accents.<\/p>\n<p>Shouting \u201cWe want to get through!,\u201d the migrants ran up to the center line of the bridge, where U.S. authorities had erected concrete and plastic barriers strung with concertina wire.<\/p>\n<p>The migrants were stopped by the barrier, and remained on the Mexican side, shouting \u201cOpen up for us!\u201d to the U.S. officers. After a time, the migrants ran back toward the Mexican side.<\/p>\n<p>Traffic was reopened and flowing in both directions as of Sunday evening, Maier said.

A message seeking comment was left with the mayor\u2019s office in El Paso.<\/p>\n<p>The rush across the bridge may have been sparked by false rumors, said Camilo Cruz, who works with the U.N. migration office in Ciudad Juarez.<\/p>\n<p>Cruz said there was \u201ca rumor that they were going to let them cross massively, particularly people who arrived with children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cruz said the rumors are a recurrent problem. About a month ago, messages began circulating \u201cthat there were going to be buses on the U.S. side to take them to Canada &#8230; and when they arrived, they were told it was a lie.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The worst thing, Cruz said, is that migrants often leave the shelters where they are staying to attend such mass crossing attempts, only to find the shelters full when they return.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the migrants on Sunday appeared to be asylum seekers. One woman held out what appeared to be an appointment slip at the barricade. Migrants seeking asylum, a legal immigration pathway for people fleeing persecution in their own country, have been frustrated by newly-implemented limits on those showing up at the southwest border, as many Venezuelans do.<\/p>\n<p>There has been frustration with the U.S. government\u2019s CBPOne mobile app for making appointments to apply for asylum, which has been overloaded since the Biden administration introduced it Jan. 12. New appointments are available each day at 6 a.m., but migrants find themselves stymied by error messages.<\/p>\n<p>Also causing frustration is a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-i13n=\"cpos:2;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/politics-texas-haiti-cuba-514ddaa9bc804844568727f76a931a12\" data-ylk=\"slk:pandemic rule;cpos:2;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">pandemic rule<\/a>, scheduled to end May 11, that denies migrants a chance to seek asylum on grounds of preventing the spread of COVID-19.
