Migrant caravan modifies route; goes to Acuyacan

After the meeting with state and federal authorities, the state leader sent a message in which he mentioned that the Hondurans will be provided with humanitarian aid,
which will consist of food, water and health services.

But it is very important that they can move quickly from Veracruz to another place; that's why we offered them transportation,
so that if possible tomorrow, which is November 3, they can move to Mexico City or wherever they want, "he said.

While some migrants settled to rest from the walk, others received the offer of transporters to travel on board trailers, to the city of Veracruz and then to Mexico City.

Traditionally, the migratory route is by Matías Romero, Oaxaca and from there to the Puebla-Mexico City route,
but this time the offer of the transporters made them change their plans, according to the Honduran caravan leaders. .


On the other hand, the brigades of the Ministry of Health, already came out in support of migrants to address the health problems they present,
as there are reports of Hondurans presenting respiratory problems,
as well as dengue fever and Zika; others have problems with dehydration and stomach infections.

The city council of Sayula ordered to fumigate the areas where some of the walkers who already continued their journey stayed overnight;
nevertheless, it maintained a security operation since there are a good number of people who still would spend the night in that place,
reason why the municipal authorities studied the possibility of ordering a "dry law", so as not to sell them alcohol.

after the consumption of alcohol by migrants, looting and assaults were recorded.


Yunes Linates pointed out that it is possible that tomorrow the trucks will be allowed to come out ...

"For Veracruz it is very important and we attend all the indications of the CNDH regarding the support of this caravan, but it is also important to maintain the safety and health of the people of Veracruz, for me it is the priority," the governor said.
