3,000-Person Migrant Caravan Headed Toward Southern Border

  • Around 3,000 migrants set out on Sunday in a large caravan from southern Mexico and began walking north in what organizers said was a protest demanding an end to detention centers like the one that burned down last month, killing dozens.
  • The migrants, mostly Venezuelans, started walking north early Sunday from Tapachula, a city in Mexico close to the border with Guatemala.
  • The stated goal of the migrants is to reach Mexico City in around 10 days and appeal for the closure of detention centers.
