US EditionUS Military Expands Enforcement Zone to 1/3 of Southern Border
ARIZONA, JUL 5 – The Pentagon's new 140-mile National Defense Area in Arizona expands military authority to detain migrants and combat smuggling amid a broader border security strategy deploying 7,600 troops.
- The Pentagon announced Wednesday that the U.S. Navy will control a new 140-mile NDA near Yuma, Arizona, enabling troop detention of migrants.
- President Donald Trump's April 11 memo authorized NDAs; prior zones launched in April and May, with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last week directing a 250-mile Texas zone.
- The new 140-mile NDA in Arizona is patrolled by at least 7,600 troops, with over 1,400 migrants charged and detained until CBP arrives, according to sources.
- Despite over 1,400 migrants charged with trespassing and facing up to 18 months in prison, civil rights groups sue over military zones' legality, criticizing land restrictions.
- Combined, these zones now cover nearly one-third of the U.S.-Mexico border, with critics warning they set a dangerous precedent for future domestic military deployments.
