MEXICO CITY: Mexican authorities on Sunday cleared a makeshift camp in the north of the country where hundreds of migrants heading towards the US border had been holding out for more than a year in what rights organisations criticised as deplorable conditions.

Caballero promised help for those migrants regardless of whether they want to stay in Tijuana or return to their countries of origin. Dozens of security personnel, including soldiers from the national guard, were seen dissolving the makeshift camp, fenced by metal mesh, in videos shared on social media.

Caballero said the troops were not armed and that migrants collected their belongings and boarded buses voluntarily because they had previously been notified they would be transferred.
