Masses of migrants primarily from Honduras who are fleeing violence and poverty were stopped by Mexico riot police on the border between Guatemala and Mexico. Trump congratulated Mexico's efforts to stop the caravan of migrants. However, the majority of migrants are women and children which brings up many ethical dilemmas. Trump has been pressuring countries to stop these caravans by threatening to cut aid and said he would employ military action if needed. There has been multiple breaks of the gates which Mexico riot police have been trying to mitigate by firing tear gas into the crowds. Others who didn't break through the gate either jumped off the bridge, turned back to Guatemala, or simply sat down on the bridge.
