Mexico City, Nov 10 A migrant caravan making its way through south Mexico for the past 17 days has decided to forgo Mexico City and head straight to the US border.The caravan resumed its journey on Tuesday in the state of Oaxaca.Irineo Mujica, director of immigrant rights group Pueblo Sin Fronteras (People Without Borders) and a leader of the caravan, said in a video posted on social media and cited by local media that the caravan will no longer go first to Mexico's capital, as initially planned, reported Xinhua news agency.Instead, migrants will head to the northern state of Sonora, which borders the US state of Arizona, a move that coincides with the bilateral decision to resume non-essential travel between the two countries this week, though that decision applies to documented travellers.Mujica said he expects to be joined by another caravan in 10 days, and urged migrants in other parts of south Mexico to join the journey toward the US border.The caravan, composed of some 4,000 migrants, mostly from Central America and Haiti, first departed on October 23 from the city of Tapachula, which borders Guatemala, aiming to reach Mexico City to regularize migrants' immigration status before setting off for the US border.The Central American region is seeing an unprecedented exodus this year. Between January and August, Mexico reported more than 1,47,000 undocumented migrants, triple the number in 2020, according to figures from the Mexican government.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
