On July 22, Durst drew attention to CBP’s medical training programs, stating, “Did you know? The @CBP Office of the Chief Medical Officer delivers emergency medical response training to thousands of officers & agents every year—ensuring our frontline stays safe and ready. #CBPOpsSpprt #MissionReady https://t.co/KqziaME6DU”.
The FIFA World Cup 2026 was held across multiple cities in North America, requiring extensive coordination among federal agencies for security operations. Agencies such as CBP, FBI, ATF, and the Department of Defense provided support through specialized units including K9 teams for venue safety checks. CBP’s involvement in large-scale events is part of its broader mission to secure U.S. borders and critical infrastructure.
In addition to event-specific duties, CBP invests in regular emergency preparedness by providing annual medical response training for its personnel through its Office of the Chief Medical Officer. This ongoing education aims to equip officers with skills necessary for rapid response during emergencies or mass gatherings.
