The ruling prohibits news coverage of the area where more than 11,000 mostly Haitian migrants are being held in a makeshift camp under the bridge.<\/p>\n<p>The NOTAM is in effect until September 30 and prevents any drone flights 1,000 feet or fewer from the area. The notice warns operators of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) may face consequences for violating the order. The FAA warns operators who do not comply with applicable airspace restrictions that the Department of Defense or Department of Homeland Security may take security actions which could result in the interference, disruption, seizure, damaging, or destruction of the unmanned aircraft.<\/p>\n<p>The FAA issued a statement regarding the UAS flight restriction:<\/p>\n<p><em>The Border Patrol requested the temporary flight restriction due to drones interfering with law enforcement flights on the border. As with any temporary flight restriction, media is able to call the FAA to make requests to operate in the area.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The video of thousands of illegal aliens waiting to cross the border to points unknown has nothing to do with the TFR.<\/p>\n<p>No, really.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/2021\/09\/17\/faa-grounds-drones-at-texas-border-bridge-camp-as-migrant-total-hits-11k\/\">Breitbart.com <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Del Rio International Bridge The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) instituted flight restrictions over Del Rio, Texas, &hellip; <a title=\"FAA Grounds Fox Drones\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=117572\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">FAA Grounds Fox Drones<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":657,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[209,518,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-117572","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-teh-stoopid","category-biden","category-illegal-immigrants"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117572","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/657"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=117572"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117572\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":117578,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117572\/revisions\/117578"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=117572"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=117572"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=117572"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
