CITY OF MEXICO: A fresh caravan of roughly 2,500 migrants headed for the United States left Tapachula, Chiapas, near the Guatemalan border, largely from Central America and Haiti.Organizers and refugees told local media that the delegation left Tapachula after months of waiting for the Mexican Commission for Refugee Assistance to finish their immigration procedures.

An earlier caravan of roughly 4,000 migrants, which left Tapachula on October 23, has arrived in Veracruz, Mexico's Gulf Coast state. According to the Xinhua news agency, Mexican immigration authorities have awarded licences to more than 1,000 of the caravan's undocumented migrants, allowing them to stay in the country legally.

This year, Central America is witnessing an unprecedented migration exodus. According to Mexican government estimates, more than 1,47,000 unauthorised migrants entered the country between January and August, more than treble the level in 2020.
