  • Mexican security forces have detained about 475,000 irregular migrants since October, authorities said on Friday, as U.S. President-elect Donald Trump threatens Mexico with tariffs unless it stops illegal migrants from arriving at the shared border.

In the last quarter, Mexican authorities have detained nearly half a million migrants attempting to reach the United States, marking a significant increase in migrant apprehensions. This surge includes a diverse group of individuals from various countries, with a notable number from Venezuela, Guatemala, and Honduras. The Mexican government's efforts are part of a broader strategy to manage migration flows, often in coordination with U.S. policies aimed at reducing illegal border crossings.

The situation underscores the complexities of immigration enforcement and the humanitarian considerations involved in managing such large-scale movements of people.
