The article describes a camp in Panama housing over 100 asylum seekers, faced with armed guards and barriers to legal aid. Many migrants were deported from the U.S. as part of a controversial immigration strategy by the Trump administration. Instead of seeking asylum in the U.S., these individuals face repatriation options in Panama. Reports indicate that more than half of these deportees have chosen voluntary repatriation, reflecting the challenges and obstacles they encounter in their quest for safety.
The camp lies four hours from Panama's capital, at the edge of the treacherous Darien jungle, housing over 100 asylum seekers surrounded by armed guards.
Many deportees arriving from the U.S. were swiftly sent to Panama, where more than half have since agreed to voluntary repatriation, as confirmed by President Raul Mulino.
