At least 17 migrants died in a crash in Puebla, Mexico. According to the State Secretary of the Interior, all the victims were from Venezuela, Colombia, and Central America. Mexican media reported that the driver lost control.
It is not the first case of this kind. In 2021, a migrant truck overturned on a highway near the southern city of Tuxtla Gutiérrez, killing 56 people.
More than 30 immigrants died last week in Panama when a bus fell off a cliff, which was the worst migration accident in the country’s history.
