Over 2,000 migrants, including families with children, began their journey from southern Mexico to the United States on the day of Donald Trump’s inauguration. Starting in Tapachula near the Guatemalan border, migrants aim to reach Mexico City or the US, seeking better opportunities. Trump signed 10 executive orders enhancing border security, including resuming the border wall, shutting down the CBP One app, and reinstating the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP). The orders require asylum seekers to remain in Mexico. Despite past dispersals of caravans, many hope for pathways into the US. States of emergency have been declared for border resource deployment.
