Caravan of Caribbean and Central American Migrants Departs Chiapas Seeking Legal Status

A caravan named 'Génesis 2026' comprising migrants from Haiti, Cuba, and other Caribbean and Central American countries started from Tapachula, Chiapas, aiming to reach northern Mexico for better legal opportunities. The migrants have shifted focus from the U.S. to Mexico due to restrictive U.S. immigration policies under Trump, facing security and humanitarian challenges during the journey. Authorities have initiated security protocols to support the group as they progress toward Mexico City, making the caravan a significant measure of regional migration dynamics in 2024.
