In response to a government watchdog report earlier this week claiming the Islamic State group has set up training camps along the Mexican-U.S. border, the Federal Bureau of Investigation reportedly called a special meeting to organize a press strategy to address the report.

Conservative nonpartisan government watchdog group Judicial Watch reported earlier this week that the Islamic State group is operating a training camp in Mexico about 8 miles from the U.S. border in an area known as "Anapra," just west of Ciudad Juárez in the state of Chihuahua. Mexican drug cartels are also smuggling Islamic State group members into states like Texas, Judicial Watch said. The information was supposedly provided by a Mexican Army field grade officer and a Mexican Federal Police Inspector, among others.

Now, the FBI and Mexican authorities are attempting to discredit that report, Judicial Watch says.

Citing an anonymous "high-level intelligence source," Judicial Watch claims that FBI supervisory personnel met with Mexican Army officers and Mexican Federal Police officials to "address a press strategy to deny Judicial Watch's accurate reporting and identify who is providing information to JW."

More from the initial Judicial Watch report:

"Another ISIS cell to the west of Ciudad Juárez, in Puerto Palomas, targets the New Mexico towns of Columbus and Deming for easy access to the United States, the same knowledgeable sources confirm. During the course of a joint operation last week, Mexican Army and federal law enforcement officials discovered documents in Arabic and Urdu, as well as "plans" of Fort Bliss - the sprawling military installation that houses the US Army's 1st Armored Division. Muslim prayer rugs were recovered with the documents during the operation.

"'Coyotes' engaged in human smuggling - and working for the Juárez Cartel - help move ISIS terrorists through the desert and across the border between Santa Teresa and Sunland Park, New Mexico. To the east of El Paso and Ciudad Juárez, cartel-backed 'coyotes' are also smuggling ISIS terrorists through the porous border between Acala and Fort Hancock, Texas. These specific areas were targeted for exploitation by ISIS because of their understaffed municipal and county police forces, and the relative safe-havens the areas provide for the unchecked large-scale drug smuggling that was already ongoing."
