亚利桑那州边境墙抗议：18名示威者在圣拉斐尔谷被扣留
美国边境巡逻队在亚利桑那州圣拉斐尔谷扣留了18名边境墙抗议者，相关处理程序于10月5日进行。据《亚利桑那共和报》10月8日更新的报道，抗议者们聚集在一棵被称为“棉白杨树”的地标附近，反对边境墙施工对当地生态环境与历史遗迹的破坏，双方发生对峙后执法人员实施了扣留。圣拉斐尔谷是亚利桑那州南部重要的自然保护区，拥有珍稀的草原生态系统。抗议组织表示，边境墙工程切断了野生动物迁徙通道；边境巡逻队则称，执法行动旨在维护边境安全与施工秩序。被扣留者此后陆续获释。
18 Wall Protesters Detained Near Cottonwood Tree in Arizona's San Rafael Valley
U.S. Border Patrol agents detained 18 border wall protesters in Arizona's San Rafael Valley, with processing completed on October 5. According to an updated Arizona Republic report on October 8, the demonstrators had gathered near a landmark known as the cottonwood tree to oppose the wall's damage to local ecology and historic sites; agents detained them after a standoff. The San Rafael Valley is a vital nature preserve in southern Arizona with a rare grassland ecosystem. Protest organizers say wall construction severs wildlife migration corridors; the Border Patrol said the operation aimed to maintain border security and construction order. Those detained were later released.
