Massive migrant caravan heads to US southern border ahead of election

Acaravan of approximately 2,000 migrants was spotted traveling on Sunday to the United States’ border with Mexico ahead of next month’s presidential election.

Both presidential candidates have pushed for tougher security at the country’s southern border, after a record 10 million illegal immigrants crossed into the country during the Biden administration. Vice President Kamala Harris recently claimed that people who were caught crossing into the country illegally would be deported and barred from re-entry for five years, per CBS Austin.

The caravan included migrants who were fleeing from Venezuela, Haiti, Honduras, and parts of Africa, according to the Daily Wire. The caravan departed the city of Tapachula in Mexico on Sunday, which is on the country’s southern border with Guatemala.
