Tapachula, Mexico: Stampede outside the offices of the Mexican Commission for Aid to Refugees (COMAR), where some 1,500 migrants, mostly Haitians, Cubans, Venezuelans and Central Americans, were involved in tumultuous clashes while they were seeking to process their refugee application.

This marks the second consecutive day of chaos, leaving several people injured. Migrants point out the slowness and corruption in the process. Both the National Guard and the National Migration Institute (INM) intervened to restore order.
