US border crisis: ICE officials force-feeding immigrants on hunger strike in Texas detention centre

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials are force-feeding migrants who are on hunger strike at a detention centre in El Paso, Texas. Family members of migrants say the force-feeding is causing severe nosebleeds and vomiting. Force-feeding is when a lubricated tube is pushed through the nostril until it reaches the throat, so that liquid food can be pumped into the stomach.
