Darién Gap migrant crossings plummet to near zero under Trump crackdown policies

Migrant crossings through Panama's Darién Gap have plummeted to near zero following a crackdown by President Donald Trump, transforming what was once a treacherous corridor for tens of thousands of U.S.-bound migrants into a deserted region. The drastic decline is attributed to the aggressive measures taken by the U.S. government under Trump's leadership. These measures include increased border security and cooperation with Panama to combat smuggling operations. As a result, the Darién Gap is now virtually devoid of human activity.
