New York City Opening Emergency Centres For Asylum Seekers
Mayor says new centres will provide shelter, food and healthcare to hundreds of people bused into the city each day.
Emergency centres will be opened in New York City to provide support for migrants and asylum seekers, the mayor has announced, as Republican lawmakers from other parts of the United States continue to send busloads of people into the city.
In a statement on Thursday, Mayor Eric Adams said two centres would provide shelter, food and medical care, as well as a range of settlement support to hundreds of asylum seekers arriving each day from Texas and other US border states.
