"1,500-strong Migrant Caravan Heads North Toward US Southern Border"

A new migrant caravan of about 1,500 people, mainly from Central and South America, is making its way towards the US southern border from southern Mexico, with many citing economic hardship and political instability in their home countries as reasons for seeking a better life in the United States. This comes as US officials are pressuring Mexico to do more to control the flow of migrants, and as more migrants are finding ways to unlawfully enter the US, such as a recent group that stormed a beach in California.
