In addition to the apprehensions, his agents seized 117 pounds of fentanyl and interdicted 14 human smuggling incidents. His agents also carried out 17 migrant rescues.

The apprehensions during the prior seven-day period are up by 1,000 migrants from the previous weekly report, where Modlin said his agents encountered 14,300. The agents seized 300 pounds of fentanyl and rescued 33 migrants during that period.
