According to authorities, a tunnel connecting Mexico to San Luis in Yuma County has been unearthed. Remarkably, this marks the third tunnel discovered in the vicinity of Yuma this year.
In San Luis, Arizona, a drone played a crucial role in the discovery of an ongoing construction of a tunnel beneath the U.S.-Mexico border.
In a collaborative effort, Customs and Border Protection, together with the Secretariat of Public Security in Sonora, successfully located and shut down the tunnel.
The San Luis Secretariat of Public Security made a post about the discovery on the day after Christmas.
Mexican authorities have reported that this year marks the discovery of the third drug tunnel south of Yuma.
In 2020, authorities were elated when they discovered what they hailed as the most sophisticated tunnel ever unearthed in the United States.
The San Luis area also discovered it.
In 2018, a remarkable discovery was made – a tunnel connecting a residence in Mexico to an abandoned KFC restaurant in San Luis.
