80,000 migrants amassed in Guatemala, heading to US for Title 42 end

Some 80,000 South American migrants are amassed in Guatemala and planning to head for the US-Mexico border, government sources tell The Post.

Other migrants who have already made the journey are flooding the southern border, overwhelming US Customs and Border Protection by handing themselves over in their thousands daily ahead of the end of Title 42 measures on May 11.

Things are only expected to get worse when the pandemic-era restriction ends, with tens of thousands of migrants camped along the Mexican side of the border, planning to head into the US.

Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales, who represents some 450 miles of the southern border, said he learned of the hordes of migrants while speaking to the Guatemalan president.

“There are 80,000 illegals cutting through Guatemala right now,” the Republican told The Post, adding the alarming figure prompted him to call the Biden Administration to share the information.

“I called the White House and no one is picking up,” the exasperated US Representative added.

The migrants are understood to be from multiple South and Central American countries and are making their way through Guatemala toward Mexico.

Meanwhile, in return for US aid, Mexico has also been working to bolster its own border enforcement and The Post has also learned of a camp run by the country’s immigration officials just over the border from Guatemala in Tapachula, in the state of Chiapas.

Mexican reports say there are a further 60,000 migrants held there and The Nation reports, “Protests, hunger strikes, and clashes with police are common.” —>READ MORE HERE

80K Migrants Head to US from Guatemala as Title 42 Ends:

According to government sources, around 80,000 South American migrants are currently in Guatemala, planning to head towards the US-Mexico border. This news comes as other migrants who have already made the journey are overwhelming US Customs and Border Protection by handing themselves over in their thousands daily ahead of the end of Title 42 measures on May 11. The situation is expected to worsen when the pandemic-era restriction ends, with tens of thousands of migrants camped along the Mexican side of the border, planning to head into the US. Texas Representative Tony Gonzales, who represents some 450 miles of the southern border, said he learned of the hordes of migrants while speaking to the Guatemalan president. He called the Biden Administration to share the information but received no response.

It is understood that the migrants are from multiple South and Central American countries and are making their way through Guatemala towards Mexico. Meanwhile, in return for US aid, Mexico has also been working to bolster its own border enforcement. The Post has learned of a camp run by the country’s immigration officials just over the border from Guatemala in Tapachula, in the state of Chiapas. Mexican reports say there are a further 60,000 migrants held there and protests, hunger strikes, and clashes with police are common.

It’s unknown when or how many of the 80,000 migrants hoping to reach the US will make it to the southern border, but the US is already bracing for up to 13,000 migrants a day trying to enter the US when Title 42 ends. The pandemic-era policy has been used to keep millions of migrants from claiming asylum in the US and will end at 11:59 p.m. May 11. Migrants have started to pour over the border, with close to 81,000 attempting to cross in the last 10 days, according to Border Patrol statistics. The agency also admitted an estimated further 26,000 had entered the country and evaded detection during that time. —>READ MORE HERE
