Scores of Venezuelans wander in the streets of Colombia’s capital

  • 6 years ago
As the economic crisis deepens in Venezuela, hundreds of people are crossing the border every day to neighbouring Colombia.

The clip, captured today (August 28), shows a group of Venezuelans migrants gathering outside the central bus station in Bogota.

The filmer writes: ‘’Most of them have been sleeping in the station for a week.

‘’They arrived here last week after walking for days.’’

In the video, a Venezuelan man explains that he reached Bogota on foot after walking for 248 miles from the city of Cali.

More than two million Venezuelans have fled their country since 2014.
