About 2,000 migrants from Latin America decide to walk toward their ultimate goal of reaching the US while some 1,000 opt to wait to get an exit visa from Mexico
Venezuelans make up a large proportion of migrants' caravan, the biggest of the year, in contrast to previous ones.
A group of about 2,000 mainly younger male migrants set out walking on Thursday from the southern town of Huixtla. But about 1,000 migrants, mainly families with children, decided to wait in Huixtla to see if they could get some sort of temporary exit visa. While some caravan participants reached the border in the past, it was due to bus or car rides — which the government now tries to prevent.
Venezuelan migrant Junior Ramirez was still waiting for papers with about 15 members of his extended family at a National Immigration Institute post outside Huixtla, where the migrants slept in the open air on Tuesday and Wednesday.
