8:02 pm
into the us. most of them are coming from venezuela. cuba, haiti, and guatemala activist said the group could be one of the regions largest migrant caravans in recent years. at least 6000 people left the border city of tougher trula monday. a time their departure to coincide with the summit of the americas this week. among ruffles, following the caravan is joining us live from shop as states in mexico. talk to us about what you've been seeing. my mom this is a micro caravan that set out from the city of tempe. actually here in southern mexico, in the early hours of monday, they made it as far as the town of alberto already gone in around mid day on day where they just absolutely couldn't move any further. were talking about anywhere between $46000.00 people. if you may not be able to see the group behind me, but there are thousands of people. so walking in our direction, we're still about 80 kilometers from the next 8 kilometers, sorry,
8:03 pm
from the next town, which is weeks last. so there's still quite a bit of, of walking left to do. the group itself is, is trying to cover as much ground as they can. their ultimate goal is to reach the united states, but they're only able to go as fast as the slowest members of the group. but we should know that there are many women and children among the migrants that are making their way to the next town here in, in, in southern mexico. it's not likely that they're going to get much further because we are now under the midday sun, the punish heat of southern mexico. but one of the reasons why we're seeing such a mass mobilization of people is because they, there's a sense that their safety in numbers, there's a lesson likelihood that they're going to be stopped by immigration authorities. if it's a large group that stays together as they make their, as they make their way as they make their way north, unlike previous migrant care events that we've covered. in past years with central american migrants of asian migrants, this one is made almost entirely of that as well in migrants. but those,
8:04 pm
there are many who have grown frustrated with the slow pace of this car caravan and have just started sort of jumping aboard the, the large trucks that are passing cargo truck. so it's not uncommon at this point for us to see trucks just covered with people who are tired of walking tired of the heat and just wanting to get as far ahead of this caravan as possible. it is not a stretch for us to say that this is the largest migrate care event that we've seen so far this year. it would be surprised if it's one of the, the largest that we've seen in recent years. you have years. so i'll just say it will have seen you, of course, in the past, covering similar count events from different countries. and quite often those have when they reach the body of the us border, have resulted in violence on, on either side of the border. what do you think the reaction of the authorities is likely to be when this kind of gets there? there is a lot of optimism among the migrants that we've spoken to because we have seen riot
8:05 pm
police. we have seen a lot of immigration authority sort of coming up and down the street. but so far, at least from our point of view, we have not seen anybody being stopped yet. and it's a very different scene. if we were to compare this to the migrate caravan that we saw from that that was primarily of haitian migrants, just last year we saw the way that they were treated by immigration authorities. here in mexico, i think the images of haitian being not only turned away, but beaten with, with fly immigration agents on horseback on the u. s. southern border, those images that, that really shocked the world. we have not seen that yet. and again, the vast majority of people that we're seeing are from that as well, other or others of other nationalities. there are central american migrants. there are cubans, or nicaraguans, or migrants here from haiti as well. and from countries in africa, all of them telling us that there's really nothing that's going to stop them from reaching their goal. busy that goal being the u. s. southern border. my know,
