The Darien Gap? The one in Panama?
To this day (AFAICR) an undeveloped, near-impassable tropical wilderness?
Where malaria and dengue fever are probably the least-dangerous diseases one might be exposed to?
WTF are these clowns doing there that’s related to “migrants”?

If those idiots are trolling around for migrants in the Darien Gap, they are going to absolutely walk into trouble, in between the migrants and the coyotes and the drug smugglers and and and. I did a bit of reading about the Darien Gap a couple of weeks ago (when researching about Chinese immigrants coming up from Ecuador) and holy crap, you have got to be seriously desperate to go that route. There’s a reason the Pan American Highway stops in Yaviza, Panama, and doesn’t start up again until Turbo, Colombia. “It’s a jungle” doesn’t even begin to describe the area.
