Nearly 9,000 asylum seekers and migrants have crossed the United States-Mexico border in just 24 hours.
It is one of the highest rates of arrivals in the US in months.
The White House says it has sent 800 military personnel to help.
In Mexico, officials have used a range of tactics to stem the number of crossings, including shutting down railways in response to people who have died after falling off rail cars while trying to reach the border.
