Panama Has Had It With Illegal Migrants Using It To Launch March To US Border

Panamanian officials announced it will evaluate a possible closure of the border with Colombia due to the increase in migrants crossing the Darien jungle, located between these two countries.
Panama, the gateway to Central America from the south, receives around 3,000 migrants per day, to whom, at certain stations, biometric data is collected and medical and food assistance is provided. This unique operation on the continent has seen an investment of “nearly 70 million dollars” by the country in recent years, as per Panamanian authorities.
