The caravan departed from Mexico's Chiapas southern border carrying an oversized white wooden cross to show the so-called "Hardships" illegal immigrants have to face while traveling illegally to the states.
The Mexican National Migration Institute has been working with cities to make preparations to find illegal aliens shelter, food, and supplies as they head toward the U.S.-Mexico border.
As organizers of the caravan spoke with Mexican media outlets, leaders can be heard on social media videos yelling through a bullhorn, "A la frontera!"- which means to the border! The group said that many of the illegal immigrants will land in border cities close to Tijuana, Mexico such as San Diego and South Texas.
Since the beginning of Fiscal Year 2021, more than 294 illegal aliens on the terrorist watchlist have been apprehended at the southwest border between ports of entry.
In 2023, Customs Border and Protection arrested 35, 433 illegal immigrants with criminal convictions nationwide, including 598 known gang members.
2023 saw a record-breaking amount of illegal crossers apprehended at the southern border as Biden stood back and did nothing.
December alone saw 276,000 apprehensions- the highest ever on record- just one month after November's highest, with nearly 250,000 border encounters.
