The Mexican government is rushing to raise tent cities for migrants deported from the U.S. Thousands of non-Mexicans now stranded in the country are overwhelming immigration officials as migrants continue to arrive from Central and South America.

In Mexico City, some migrants have built tent cities and slept on the streets. In a country long sympathetic to migrants, neighbors are protesting.

The US-Mexico border is effectively closed off to migrants seeking asylum in the United States within hours of President Donald Trump taking office, an extraordinary departure from previous protocols that has left many concerned migrants in limbo.
