Border enforcement operations
Border enforcement operations involve government efforts to monitor and regulate the movement of people and goods across national borders. These operations include patrolling border areas, using technology like surveillance cameras and drones, inspecting shipments, and enforcing immigration laws. The goal is to prevent illegal entry, smuggling, and trafficking while facilitating lawful travel and trade. These efforts help maintain national security, economic stability, and public safety, balancing control with lawful access. They are conducted by agencies such as Customs and Border Protection, utilizing personnel, technology, and international cooperation.
