In a significant development, the flow of thousands of migrants through the perilous migratory route known as the Darien Gap has been abruptly halted. This interruption comes in the wake of the apprehension of several boat captains who were responsible for ferrying migrants to the starting point of their challenging journey through the jungle.
The disruption commenced with the capture of two boat captains in the Colombian city of Necoclí. Subsequently, the companies employing them ceased all transport services in protest. This move effectively cut off the estimated 2,000 individuals per day who enter the jungle passage with hopes of reaching the United States.
