US arrests two Yemenis on terror watchlist who tried to cross border from Mexico

WASHINGTON: US border agents in recent months arrested two Yemeni men on a terror watchlist in separate incidents as they crossed the border with Mexico illegally, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced on Monday.
The men, arrested in January and March near a port of entry in California, were on a US government watchlist for extremist suspects and a “no-fly” list, CBP said in a press release.
