Mexico's Congress has condemned what it says is a border violation by US workers building a controversial barrier between the two countries.
Legislators say workers and equipment building a section of the barrier have gone 10 metres (yards) into Mexico.
The alleged border violation comes ahead of a high-level meeting in the Canadian capital Ottawa.
US, Mexican and Canadian foreign ministers are to discuss border security and trade issues.
Mexican legislators said they had photographs and video, taken on Monday, of the workers and heavy-duty construction equipment that showed them about 10 metres inside Mexico near the border city of Agua Prieta and the town of Douglas, Arizona.

Mexicans whine about trespass
The BBC is reporting that the Mexican government is upset about Americans trespassing on their territory. Between one and three million Mexicans illegally sneak into this country every year -- trespassing on an abominable scale, and they're going to complain about a fence going up 10 meters into their territory? Boy, they've got some brass ones down there.
