10:33 pm
ah ah ah, ah, i f m yeah. okay, sale the stream. i'm going to take you to a small area of jungle between columbia and panama. it is a small area of hell. let me show you the map to the can push in towards it. we're heading towards the dorian gap. so as we headed towards it, you'll see a patch of green. ok, that is the jungle. it's only about 60 miles wind, but getting for it as a migrant. this is part of the migrant trail from central america through to northern america, north america, getting for it is very difficult. let me show you. let's pull back and show you the long, long journey. if you make it through that jungle,
10:34 pm
all the way through to the united states in the past year, more migrants have been traveling that route than ever. 807000 migrants in 2021 so far, 19000 of them with children. and another 50000 are expected to go through that very same route. before the end of this year. i know you have questions. this is part of the migrant story in north america and central america that we don't always get to hear about a new to use the comment section. be part of the day show. we are asking about the daren gap why it is so dangerous. who goes through there and how to central america sole, or begin to address its major migrant crisis on today? street? ah, ah, has 3 guests who help us answer so many of those questions go cheat, theresa had my nice to have you here on the stream. go to introduce yourself to i
10:35 pm
international audience. bring to to be here. my name is a go to daniels and i am the deputy director general for operations at the un international organization for migration ticket to have a critical voice on today's part of that. teresa always get to have you on the stream. you bring stories, you've been inside. hello audience, who you are a new connection to the diary and gap because there's a piece of reporting that you've been doing. that is, has been very well received and so important. well, my name is teresa ball. i'm a latin american correspondent for algebra and i just came back from covering and bill through the darian gap. and it was one of the most impressive, sad and devastating stories. i've covered him a good to have healed the stream and 14 for a really difficult story to share with international audience. but tell them who you are, what you do. thank you. i am jim. i mean,
10:36 pm
i am the head of mission from ss in mexico on panama. i get to have you. i'm just thinking here about the diary and gap and how i described it. teresa, can you help me because you were there not so long ago. how would you tell our audience what it is like for my kids to arrive at town and know that they have to go through this jungle and what happens to them in that jungle? and if they manage to make it out the other side. well when we arrive to the colombian city of nicko lee and when once we were there we started thousands and thousands and thousands of people just piling beer. they were not being allowed by the columbia columbia authority to cross what is known as a goal to continue with their journey towards panama. people arriving there were desperate, many have very little resources there. all one can make it either to mexico or the
10:37 pm
united states as a final destination. they know that the trip is going to be difficult, but they never imagine, you know, how difficult many of the people i spoke to in the beginning of that journey. they were telling me, we know it's very hard, but in the end of that journey, which is in a town of backward, you go in panama, you know, they said had i known what i was going to go to, i would have never taken this journey. you know, we personally, we were not allowed to cross at the time. security conditions were not, you know, it was extremely dangerous for us to do so. but we did cover a big part of the true true pattern with through colombia and then all the other side from panama. and you know, people arrived to the other side hungry. many have been women have been raped. children are dehydrated in and many died along the way. so we have very, very, very difficult journey for them to embark on. you know, i couldn't agree more. i was in by her to quito just last week. i saw
10:38 pm
a lot of the same thing. i think what really struck me as you see the migrants walking into behind she quito coming out of the jungle. how tired this oriented they are and the looks on their faces. and i had the chance to speak with quite a few of them. and something that really struck me was, 1st of all, they all talked about how this is nothing like what they expected. that's, you know, that's the 1st thing. but they all talked about the faces that they saw because they've passed through so many corpses along the way. so they're also in a state of almost psychological shock when they arrive. and almost all of them also talk about how if they could, they would go back home future, choose making the journey. i showed them up earlier. so where between columbia and panama. so who are these markers who, who dare to go for
10:39 pm
a jungle and potential death, they know or going to make it? so we saw migrant people from haiti, people from venezuela, people from dominican republic, people from as far away as is becca span and gold. guinea, so it's a range of people from different countries. but the other thing that really struck me is that they're young because to survive the journey, you have to be young and able bodied, many of them talked about their parents who were with them, but who died or injured and still in the forest. so that, that's what we see, a range of nationalities, but young young people. i'm going to explore that. the young people who are making this journey met until frontier did a documentary. they talked to some of the people who had made it through the dorian
10:40 pm
gap. and you'll see how young they are and the kind of risks that they took that take a look how much is it going to be made on the lot of them, but i only know for i see no, yeah, i don't say you must be in the evening i was out real muffling within reason. i don't. i don't think that oh good. but i could also give you level gay son, but also say the high real last throw at you know i said with some ok, so we want to go home. maybe some, you know, i, so when you invest one and, you know, i see i know but that and then also the oil. i know it's just on the how
10:41 pm
about my son still frontier doctors without borders? what kind of state did you find people then after they've gone through the darian gap? i mean, well the numbers are mentioning the number of people are crossing the gap where we have seen more than 30000 people in our 1st position. we are prison in blackwood to keep ending then migration a station in april. it was an emergency for us because many meet around in mexico in the head centers where we are providing has they were mentioning the nightmare that work could us into that in. so finally we didn't explode at 30 miss janine march and they were already a thing they had in buffalo and supporting as. busy well,
10:42 pm
we've had care in to make it up to the, into me that the, the station in the last that, and in somebody sent him back or 2 people in the 1st place where people are writing and some of the other collaborators from that were mentioning that he said he sent me one home and he's all they had problem related to walk during 5 to 7 days nowadays that he saw last year that they can do the colonel. but before they were $5.00 to $7.00 days more than more than many months, we said that they are a. busy 1000000 so that means that that is the capital sometimes a little bit old and other said that i need to be younger, but they are when the children sometimes don't listen, some time mine or no, not from pain. and what they had mentioned to me that at the beginning they go in
10:43 pm
groups, but there is one moment talk with the, the images that people, they lock their companions. and finally they need to be in a hurry to continue, continue on advancing. and finally, many people, they leave their relatives and they have to continue. so at the same time they're worth is the 6 a lot of violence and the violence that they offending because they got a boost of was the put in groups that they are. and they are, they, they, me, grant, sometimes we followed the unit. and at the same time they said body that we meant and they, they weighed them. so this is what the, where we serve in. and then they didn't our center together with a ministry of yes and we had are equally concerned about the cases of g, b, v. and what's especially a violence rape,
10:44 pm
sexual violence. but what's even more concerning is that we know that many of these cases are under reported. they don't want to report because they want to spend as minimal time as possible and just and just pass and find me at the beginning. you were mentioning the numbers 100000 them probably 850000. it's important to also highlight that the numbers that have passed through this year is more than have passed through in the past 10 years. one trying why? well, what we are seeing from our programs is that one of the impact of cove it economic people don't know my yes. and when you speak to them, they all say we're looking for better opportunities for, for our family. 3 to go ahead. what, what, you know, my experience is when, when people we were talking to them and people were completely traumatized as a documentary from doctors without borders. called feminine women where they did
10:45 pm
not want to talk about what happened to them. but then, you know, we went to not on camera of course, and they were explaining to how, you know, they were going in groups and then they separate. they were separated and then criminal groups with face covered. they didn't know whether they were colombians or panamanians because that's an area that's important to know. that's an area where the goals, you know, there's a paramilitary groups operate in that area, colombian paramilitary groups. but then there's criminal organizations on the other side. so the, the migrants, they pay some either call your teeth or guide as they call them. they are charging about $100.00 each. so they explode that they are going to be taken from the other side. but what happens is that once they arrive the middle of that trip, they, you know, they are either abandoned or they are kidnapped in a way by other groups. and then there's separated and that's when women are taken to one side. and i was told that for example,
10:46 pm
to restrict like 10 of which would be a women were taken to one side. yeah. so as excuse me for, for interrupting you. i want to show some of the recordings and the people that you spoke to because it's so powerful when you hear it from your own voices. so this is some of 2 eaters reporting for al jazeera. in the felt less taken up, florida says they were assaulted, a woman from her group was raped and she had to cover herself in mud to protect herself into you'll see, rape has become the norm and your new army normally and africa doing in by you when you have a, a new in your, your life a long ago. and
10:47 pm
when i only deal with them in order, they'll probably be so many another room and my phone is what it is you were saying that some women were being targeted. yeah, go ahead. know it there, targeted and there's that chill violence and there's the criminal organizations that are operating in that area. and it's, you know, it's, if you look at, for example, the conflict in columbia and so areas are completely out of control authority. there is no security in panama and some areas of the country. there's similar situation, maybe not a period in columbia. so there's no control at a point. there were some talk between, you know, regenerate, waiting to try to guarantee a safe bass or migrant. but, you know, for what i have heard, you know, it's, it's been, you know, they haven't tab, there's something that can move forward and it's necessary. i mean, people crossing that border are victims to criminal organizations to gangs upgrading in that area. mostly women are children. everyone i spoke to and i'm
10:48 pm
talking, you know, we spoke to dozens of women. everyone had been wrong. everyone had lost all their belongings, their phones. so it's a very violent trade. it's a very, you know, it meets people traumatized that many regret, even embarking on that journey. but after all of the women that we were just seeing, you know, i spoke to her recently and he's already, she's already in the united states. so, you know, at a point she was asking me please, you know, let the voice out of what would happen to us. but, you know, she's, she's now in the united states and asking for asylum. so people feedback and that's why they continue to go. and you know, what, just as you know, we were hearing is thousands and thousands of people continue to go there. i'm going to bringing another voice into our conversation guess, and then i have so many questions on youtube for you. i'm going to ask you to maybe help out we it's understand exactly what's going on from your perspective. robert mckee. oh and is from the global migration center. he's the deputy director and he
10:49 pm
knows that this route, this route for the dorian gap. it's a very well known route, if it's so well known, the atrocities that happened to migrate it so well, no. what do you do about that? here is fortunately, the darien gap. it's incredibly dangerous and has become a kind of a routine part of the migrant trail from people coming from south america through central america. and the only solution i see would be for someone, some organization to be there to meet migrants at the beginning of the gap in northern columbia and take them through to one of the shelters that the panamanian government hosts in central panama. ah, i don't know if that's who it feasible, but you know it's become part of ru, is a routine part of migration for a lot of people and a lot of people die passing through it become seriously ill,
10:50 pm
become seriously traumatized. let's tackle some of the questions that you can share with us for us. this is carlos. he says, the daunting region between columbia and the panama border has been a very dangerous place. refugees, because trafficking drugs, government should implement protection for those migrate. that's what robert was saying, protection gucci. is that possible? it's parts of the solution, but it's not the whole solution. we, as i o m, have been working with the government of panama, they have increased patrols in the gap. we have seen at least the number of reported cases of sexual violence reduced, but we know that that is not enough to deal with the overall issue of migration. it needs to be a regional approach because there's so many countries in the region involved. but it also needs to be a range of things that need to be done. first of all, increasing regular opportunities for migration,
10:51 pm
for these migrants addressing the root causes and the drivers of migration where they come from, giving them opportunities to voluntarily return. you have the answers, why we were running in the studio by mike with going through hell, right? so you have all the art says why we still seeing it? well, at this point, there's cautious optimism because on the political side, the leaders of the countries involved are keen to address this issue. the un migration agency, we've actually just put out an appeal for $75000000.00 for a comprehensive regional response that will involve a range of un agencies. so we know what to do and the political will know what is there, or is it being done? this is a kind of a president, he's talking about this whole issue about if people are leaving because they don't have enough money, they don't have jobs. that could be the root cause,
10:52 pm
that is the recourse here is speaking. on october, the 20th emory goldman though we have recommended a public investment program with a public infrastructure program to generate employment, a public infrastructure program to generate massive employment. so that the people of haiti, the haitians stay in their country so that they see progress in a future and haiti but also what we need more ye chief comments and questions. let me put this one to you teresa ad, but james os is there no way that my class can get to that destination without going through the horrifying forest? the jungle? well, people, if i, you know, we have spoken to a know that they have to, they have a path that they go through, you know, they've been in touch with, you know, their co pays or, or guide before and, and they know the way, i mean, this is something that should be, you know,
10:53 pm
that authority regional authority should make a safe passage while we were in nickel county. for example, you know, migrant, we're going to go one way and then be ended up changing, betray then that's where that's the part that we filmed be agreed with. it was kind of a very complex situation because you had, because your kids are guides that worked with our military group, you know, working together with a may, your, of, of, i can be a small town in columbia, helping them migrant through the way towards panama and they were trying to make sure that, that it was like a faith back. what i found out is that when we met them on the other side, it was not at the basket. people were robbed, they were harassed. children died, women were raved, you know, and this is something that continues. i met with a foreign minister of fine am i while we were in panama also, and she wanted to create the safe passage. but the other thing that when we found out is that when we went to back what you keep the, where dr without orders has a field hospital, they were the only ones working there, you know,
10:54 pm
migrants were not receiving any assistance from panama while they were there there were no food, they had nothing to drink, children were dehydrated and the only one helping them for doctors without borders . so i think that much more needs to be done by regional government because they, they kind of treat them as migrant. they won't invest in them, they just want them to keep them going. but what you have right now at the gathering got what you have in, in back, what you keep though is a humanitarian crisis that need to be dealt with, you know, local authority and local authority. in many cases. either don't care or don't have the resources them. i want to talk about safe passage. i know you have some thoughts here, but may i play festival? joshua collins, and then when you finish listening to him react immediately here. yes. it is really illustrates, is the attempts to control and militarize these borders are prevent passage of minor. does it stop? migration really pushes these vulnerable needs into the hands of armed years,
10:55 pm
criminal control patch. if people really want to try and make a humanitarian response to this problem, i think the only solution that i can see it's to open some sort of monitoring corridor. it allows for safe passage. yes, so exactly what mr. be? 18. safety. a route where make rounds or population in tron said they don't have to suffer the why your land that they had experience in that and get out. i want to fight 2 things. one is that, that are seminar group, one of them, that's a little bit more norther and you don't have to pass through back or you can go directly from my doctor in next. me go through a couple of them now a little bit,
10:56 pm
but i think and memory and you finish in, somebody sent it in there might need ration station in. somebody sends it that route is more expensive. and then that the rude people doesn't experience. the thing by unit is really very patient. so if that is one of them, not the but he's much more expensive. the south that he said the other route that the, that we're going out with from nichol, please go says, well, gandhi, i growth all, they can good feel about her to keep them. i said the last 2 days now that he said the dog so they know my 2 days. this is the place where he is much more than you do when he happen old violence. so i agree that he said some politic that can be sold in long term, but they need of the money tag responds not only from
10:57 pm
the actors and in backward. sally, as people say, we are the only one. finally ministry of head they yes. well they, they, they have to be with us in the has sensor, but there is no other actor and there are big need. people are camping in any place now under them. i the my and that he's no lead trained. there are big bud conditions, hygiene conditions that really needs to be improved. and he suddenly, as i said as that that, that we can work on these together with community and then after on. so these 9 to put in place that really now is so again, thank you jemma. thank you teresa. thank you, go she for telling us about the dorian gap between panama and columbia. and it's where so many my bullets have a fearful journey as they head towards the united states. thanks for watching everybody. we just recommend 2 things to you back here on my laptop. had american
10:58 pm
gateway to hope that is to ease oppose reporting. it is extremely informative and they also made sense on frontier, the daren gap, a dangerous, inhumane route. thanks to watching the next. mm hm. a land of the free. if you are black or criminal, you are someone who is supposed to shut up except what america gives you. a new episode of democracy, maybe expose racial conflict,
10:59 pm
ethnic politics and inequality in the united states. they get upset if you say all lives because they want to focus on the work. we had a dream on al jazeera, serious, dorcas day with one month leading the country through prism to our side as last legitimacy. he needs to step. oh, has he retained control through over a decade of war? we examined the global power games of president bashar al assad. we believe assad simply carrying out iranian orders. what keeps you awake at night? when you reason that could effect any human assert, master of chaos on all jazeera when this, when people need to be heard with clunking was founded on blood with exclusive interviews and in depth reports. if the families that are teaching each other,
11:00 pm
how to search, not really the authority, al jazeera, has teens on the ground, liquid rock shot up into the air as well as chemicals. being released to bring you more award winning documentaries and live news ah allow mariam demising on than our main story. now. tensions of boiled over along the poland batteries border where polish police have fired war to canon and tear gas at refugees and migrants attempting to cross into the u. thousands have been camped out along the border and freezing conditions for more than a week that arose is accused poland of escalating the crisis, but many migrants a bell martian authorities won't let them return to.
