Mexican Police Raids 2,000 People from the Migrant Caravan

  • They've used tear gas against the Migrant Caravan when they wanted to move from Guatemala to Mexico. Migrants have had to return to the Guatemalan city of Tecun Uman to avoid being detained, the Department of Security has reported.

Guatemala eta Mexikoren arteko muga. Irudia: El Sur

Thousands of people are trying to reach the United States from Central America. The Migrant Caravan has generated the least noise than that of October 2018 and fewer people have joined it. However, the Mexican Government has decided to expel them and not allow them to enter.

The Mexican National Guard has attacked nearly 2,000 members of the caravan and forced them to remove tear gas while the caravan was trying to reach Ciudad de Hidalgo (Mexico). Several people have been arrested, but most have turned back and are in the Guatemalan city of Tecun Uman.

 

 

 

According to the BBC, Mexico is committed to taking "unprecedented" measures to curb irregular migration. It includes the intervention of the National Guard, which is a military group composed of members of the Federal Police, Naval and Military Police. The support of Mexican President Andres Manuel López Obrador in July 2018 has been questioned by some of his decisions, especially by the agreements signed with U.S. President Donald Trump.
