(ANSA) - NEW YORK, JUN 28 - There are also 4 children among the 46 migrants found dead on board an abandoned truck in San Antonio, Texas, and others are in critical condition.
A massacre fruit of despair and probably of the heat of the ravine that is falling on the southern state, where temperatures exceed 39 degrees for days.
The grisly discovery was made by agents of Homeland Security Investigation, an agency specializing in human trafficking cases.
Investigations are ongoing and the authorities are currently holding three people linked to the astrage in custody.
It is not clear whether among these there is the driver of the mezzopesante, who fled shortly before the truck was discovered.
Texas Governor, Republican Greg Abbott, attacks President Joe Biden for the massacre.
"These deaths are his. They are the result of his deadly policy of open borders and show the consequences of his refusal to apply the law."
