An Al Shabaab terrorist who illegally crossed the southern border near San Ysidro, California, was released into the United States and remained at large for nearly a year before being apprehended in Minneapolis. The individual, who was on the terrorist watchlist, was not matched to the list until almost a year after his entry into the country. The arrest was made by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after they were notified of the individual's status. This incident has raised concerns about national security and the effectiveness of border control, as over 360 individuals on the terrorist watchlist have attempted to cross the Southwest border since President Biden took office. The acting ICE chief commended the personnel involved in the arrest, while others have criticized the Biden administration for the border policies that allowed this situation to occur.
