The diary and gap. Its a dangerous stretch of jungle between columbia and panama, the number of people crossing has hit a record high of 400000. So for all this is not so im trying to be more than double loss. He has its own home and its in southern mexico, near the border with a guatemala, profess precision human reports from the area of darwin in panama. Every day, a huge between 3 and 5000, my goods passes through a small indigenous hamlets in the daddy and jungle close to the end of a treacherous journey to the 130 kilometer long that you can get the same go. Yeah, 5 long days indicates christopher they play scorching heat, much mosquitoes, poisonous snakes, contaminated river water and vengeance. Equal to yall, hopefully that in the our group was robbed at gunpoint due to all over money and food to fix their womens chest to see if we were hiding our money there. And they made it. I dont when i would joining this group on the last leg of their jungle crossing. You may wonder how all of these people dont get lost in the jungle. Something that is so easy to do. And the reason that they dont release the majority of them dont, is that theyre told to follow these markers. Theyre blue pieces of blue plastic, that service ribbons, and they go all the way down outside of this jungle. Everyone whos hands to prove balance while crossing the river into back, which you people might until you somebody i know kerry, hes handicapped suddenly the entire journey. He says he had to leave in is late because there are no end to compulsion drugs there. But his son, one vehicle, the baby who is being treated right now is suffering from diarrhea, vomiting and fever. But he is not the only one just about everyone whos come here to this Health Center has exactly the same symptoms or even worse. No one comes out of the jungle with nothing unscathed. Just outside womens screams and p as another things really migrate. I mailed verse treats are for trench foot. Scores of people can barely walk in your mind. You tells me is traumatized on the why. I sort of been as well and woman with a baby died rattle after she fell into the water. When she slipped on a rock. Too many people are dying in a jungle. Its hill on us. The next morning the migrants form an endless line to get a seat on the feet. Our long could do like boots. That will bring them 3 hours down river to a town where they can get a bus to the cost to recover. The majority of it is wailings, but its becoming more like the United Nations people have come from as far away as china and the lease and africa also hoping to make it to the United States. As they need a new group arrives. Seem to think that they could have survived that, thatd be a gap. And also across the us border. Even though objectively the words could still be a hit. To see and human al jazeera that in depth, panama. And thats and here in the notes that would you keep the we ever hearing more horrific stories today . Hundreds of people have been brought. Right to your opinion. Is it been robbed of everything . Theres a real gang operating up there in the mountains further up from where we were and the police, they just havent been able to do anything. They say its very difficult, theyre working on if thats what were hearing. But these people are desperate given it. You can see the line here. They are again, going to immigration from here. Theyre going to get onto the boats in the morning if they can, but they have no more money. So that means they couldnt get stuck here. I mean, another 3000 people would arrive tomorrow and there is just no room and or 3. But every day receives a so now me of my friends of 3000 at least so you can imagine the sanitary conditions here are absolutely appalling. The Health Services absolutely. As you could see in sufficient mud everywhere, children hungry and were hearing of more and more people who are dying along the route. And yet they keep coming. So this is nothing seems to me to try them. In fact, as i said earlier, the very fact that they have been able to get this far. And they say with the help of god means that they have the courage and the conviction, other than of course, the hope that they will make it all the way to the us border. And they will be actually allowed into the United States. Something that, of course, no one can guarantee indeed, and yet they keep coming in to say you can see it. Thanks for that. Were going to head over to southern mexico. None of the border with a gloss of mileage on home in his dining bye for us. That said, dont tell us more about what the situation is where you are. Were in the banks of the uh, the switch up the river that set price squat tomato, one side of mexico where we are here now. Were actually made shift time that sprung up to as people wait for buses. But the Mexican Government is providing right now to take them away from buddha. And thats to try and in the woods governments with the pressure rise slightly. This area, the 6000 people heading out across every day from guatemala to mexico trying to get towards the United States. And its been a real headache for mexican authorities. And of course, for those who are traveling here, youll see my report in the midst coast is overwhelmed. That 6000 migrants of day crossing here, the southern border and looking to push on twits, know the name of the United States. Is this to any of us that quite exceeds whatever capacity we have, even the mexico wants to do a good job and use the many, the 1st city they reach is tough to, to, to just a few kilometers from the guatemalan buddha. Its full to overflowing. People have been queueing to days outside of mobile asylum, would you the papers try and get through the country. Weve been here for 4 days. Sleeping on the floor. Its rained on us, then the sun. We sleep in the queue so we dont lose our place and the government to organize buses to and its woods the pressurized puppy to live and take people to be processed in another nearby city. Some people want to go, its the rep the route, but there are not enough seats. So another comes in that the, by the roadside. When money is stephanie and they have family a way to, i, you know, some people have time. We dont, we lost everything after leaving the diary and got a so has been out in the open. And if it trains wherever we go into shelter and with the children to the funeral home, the nova bowed. The same story. Take one to see it as squatters matamoros who migrant cities for full. This is just a small number of the people heading through top of to the mexico right now. Where are they from . So im up from venezuela, a country where 7000000 people have left in recent years, playing a ruined economy summer from hate see playing terrible game violence and hunger in that country. A visit from cuba, a visit from nicaragua. Theres various countries in this region right now that have political instability, economic and stuff, and thats a lot of them are hoping to find Something Better in the United States. Other countries that theyre traveling through are also struggling with the rush coastal resources. Just to clear the state of emergency mets can president lopez over the door has cooled for regional governments to meet and try and hash out a plan for the end . It is uh, you know, meanwhile those at the hall, this continue the journey, sleeping rough suffering hung up extortion. Only the dream of safety and prosperity in the United States keeps them going on home and out. Is it a tough to to im here right now, as i said in this might shift, time sits on the border between guatemala and mexico. Ive actually got with me here as someone whos a great display. This is eddie. My thought is that shes from ben is why the one is 7000000 people in recent years of left that country look for economic reasons. And i just wanted to ask you at the moment you had to go through the study and got to get a few minutes car. Lucy was just talking about in her report. How was that for you . And the 3 children that you have the money until jesus said to nick your bus up for put that in contest ninos. Come ways to posted when i meant the young lady facing a electricity. And thats what came to how you my words that i feel like youre going through a lot on going through the legal home. Were not going to be a on bundled with with that i the coming on the set doubled by local media a being so hang on saturdays, tell you that you forget you have to be and call me up depending on whether you think of some kind cells youve ever on the lawn . Well, thats what it is. Yeah. So what i did most saying is its a very terrible, strong experience. The when you get in the, even with the rain, even with the tightness you conquered back, you just have to keep going. Even when the food has run out of the 3 days or sorry, so a really difficult experience often that you went up and from other countries. Weve heard of the, in guatemala, especially the police are exports and people basically as they go through, what was it like in your case, emphasis, which of the specific them in think what them i like. Yeah. You left policy is that them on the left, the middle of the hand to politically suck. Im afraid for those that a when a good. Ok. And but the me for me, the law seal piece of guns already made. Okay. Came on, then you will consider god they dont see going on. We still have them, which offers will not get but a boy and along side left the engineering side of things. E. When a good i see how the also to know no ones not logged on somehow we, we know for the as you have them for the okay. If weve got the model i am sending, i love you, im going to thank you. So shes saying that shes had a lot of stories about of a people at checkpoints, in guatemala, police, austin, and full money in the case. So luckily that didnt happen so much to us and its been a tie you into now, i wanted to ask you about that where you are right now in this come, youve been here for 8 days. I think we still do something similar to your trip. This was quite through this. Youve been here for full days. What is it like in this kind of im what are you waiting for . Cool more is this done this, the compliment, the it test on this, but i know one of them and then okay, but im a so i will say a, let me just you dont get off as long as the book slot is looking around the time you want to know, so lets say that again what im saying, or at least of what it is, let me check what its on. If you wouldnt look up, im headed the cause, the non though bunny on the knee on it. But on those sort of meant that its only been a good without what. Okay. No kidding. Well hold on. Sorry for my your vehicle. Theyre looking for the young at the school, so itd be so shes saying that moment that she they just have to wait. Theyve been in this kind of full days. They just have to cook what they have, try and keep the children clean and wait for the buses to come and pick them up to hopefully go to the took so that, thats the city just for everyone in the room. The authorities are taking some people to, to try and the compress the pool. The area was few of the going through the body and got one of those very difficult experiences. Did you think that mix could pot, so any one country this might be a straight run now to the border. Does it surprise you how difficult its been at this point, so thought in total campus. So lets face piece of puzzle on windows solar photo employees. Last a field. So is asked to print data. Ok the feel i see the way so the multiple is where so, but you go see the level cuz hes always on mesa for them and i make us a little mess that he may be able to check on something event i lose that includes the link up i what up late onset. Yeah. Summer and not accessing on. Wow. And only for the better means of my but im may not i course of the name of my personal name a lot. What is up enough . Galen doors is cnbc supported up. Id like to just almost, i had got a, someone from a good buying and said capital bilingual, holloway forget the unified zone for the program to get to go to the gym, which is the process that amount. So she was saying that its been very difficult even though they start close. Now they feel that they so far because money runs out the, the result is that they have to try and get to the ultimate place the United States with so many people here. A lot of them claim for economic reasons, searching for job, searching for opportunities in the United States, but still at the moment, stuck in south mexico, a country that is really struggling across the country with the amount of people the trying to move for. All right, john, the thanks for that to john holeman reporting. Lets try it on revel. Some of the complexities of this we can speak to more in my whos Vice President programs at Washington Office on latin america. She joins us by skype from washington dc. Maureen, thanks for joining us at that weve seen very clearly every last 56 minutes, the di situation on the ground. Pretty old kinds of precious, right across the board. What are your view of the priority requirements needs to be addressed and where . And i think what were saying, and what we, we just heard is a huge amount of carrying crisis throughout the region in terms of a high number of people who have traveled through very difficult conditions between the physical terrain to, to being assaulted and victims of crime. And the need to look at how can i the region there be resources, invest it to a, to at a minimum address that the humanitarian crisis that were seeing, the basic needs of this population. Apart from clearly looking at how do you develop a more manageable system that looks at the different populations we have and how do you provide more legal pathways for these people. So they, they dont have to make such dangerous journey. The providing humanitarian or funding for the humanitarian needs across this whole area is extraordinarily challenging. Thing to do, isnt it a good way to even begin . I think, you know, there is, theres Different International support, but it is certainly under funded in the last year the Us Government had provided about 800 1000000. 00 and assistance to address regional migration including humanitarian assistance. But not i think it certainly is not enough. We can look at just addressing them and thats where a lot migration crisis, where the estimate is that they need 1700000000. 00 a year to address but and only 17 percent has been for sale for this year alone. So you, you, you do need more commitments by different governments to, to support efforts in other countries and certainly where these countries, what can Different Countries offer to support this combination while theyre in their territory . Right. The us focus is be more on deterrence policies to discourage people making the journeys in the 1st place. Is that right and your view to i mean yes, the certainly the us focus has been what can we do to limit who can enter the United States . We see that with when the mr. Tional listed at title 42, which was a huge barrier to accessing asylum United States, they put in place and asylum, bam, which makes it very difficult to qualify for protection in the United States. If you dont do it through the cd 2 and a half, meaning, uh, you know, lucky on a smartphone that you get an appointment there on the 1450 print a day. We just heard of a 1000 things that are crossing these countries every day. And so certainly the, the demand outsource has been the numbers that us is providing. And this is encouraging countries to look at what else they can do to reduce the flow, particularly mexico, in terms of making it harder to reach the northern border. But also recently, discussions of mexico. How can mexico start detroit deporting people from mexico that the us has sent back the next step back to their home countries in this way . Law got out why including brazil in columbia. Right. Do you think thats a system that could work domestically with the putting on mexican migrants back to them . Countries mexico has agreed to negotiate with these countries returns. I think the big scheme of things, the numbers are never going to be high enough to really put a dent in and how many people are crossing. And when we just turn to, people are desperate. Whether youre playing hunger and extreme poverty to violence in your home country in the thought that you might get killed. If you go back there is a lot of need for people to be migrating to be searching for protection. And its really hard to see how you could deter that. Instead, what we should be looking at is more of a different legal pathways available to people. And how can we support governments throughout the region and including United States in providing ways for people to stay in those countries and feel safe for themselves and for their families. And we can talk about this for as couldnt we better we run out of time more and my we do appreciate your analysis perspective. Thanks very much. Thank you. So thanks for having me. Put them old. So head on and use our, including a report at the time called a migrant site for the libyan coast guard leaves dozens of people stranded waters of the met. His rates will tell you how the case, national Health Services, using small phones to try and reduce the backlog and appointments.
