An immigration restriction used to expel thousands of asylum seekers during the Covid-19 pandemic has come to an end in the United States.
Title 42 was brought in under former president Donald Trump to allow authorities to quickly turn away migrants attempting to enter the country's southern border.
In its place, the Biden administration has set out sweeping new rules, opening up some alternative routes for immigrants while bringing in regulations meant to deter illegal crossings.
Campaigners have already filed a legal challenge to the new asylum restrictions.
