Migrants from conflict-ridden countries like Afghanistan, Somalia, and Cameroon traversed treacherous paths to reach the US, fleeing violence, persecution, and poverty. They crossed oceans, endured language barriers, and navigated unfamiliar terrains.

On reaching the U.S.-Mexico border, they were detained and swiftly deported to Panama, under President Trump's policy to expedite deportations. The Panamanian government, facing legal pressure, released them, giving migrants 30 days to decide their next moves.
