U.S. border officials will stop enforcing a Trump-era immigration policy that requires non-Mexican asylum-seekers arriving at the southern border to wait in Mexico for processing, following a federal court order.

U.S. District Court Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk on Monday lifted an injunction he ordered last year which had prevented the Biden administration from ending the protocol.
