Deadly route

The International Organization for Migration says the United States-Mexico border is the world’s deadliest land route for migrants.

The agency has recorded at least 686 deaths and disappearances recorded there last year.

The IOM said the figure, which is likely an undercount due to a lack of official data, represented nearly half of the 1,457 migrant deaths and disappearances recorded throughout the Americas in 2022.
