Largest Migrant Caravan Since June 2022 Continues Journey Through Southern Mexico

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken to Discuss Migration Control in Upcoming Mexico City Visit

Thousands of migrants, including families, spent Christmas Day continuing their journey through southern Mexico, with little to no aid.
The migrant caravan, consisting of around 6,000 people, is the largest since June 2022.
Migrants are frustrated with the weeks or months-long wait in Tapachula for documents that might allow them to continue their journey.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is expected to arrive in Mexico City to discuss new agreements to control the surge of migrants seeking entry into the U.S.
Arrests for illegal crossing topped 2 million in each of the U.S. government’s last two fiscal years.
