‘Left To Starve In The Desert’: Peru Deploys Military To Border, Leaving Migrants Stranded In Chile

A growing humanitarian crisis is unfolding at the Chile–Peru border after Peru deployed military forces to seal its frontier, leaving dozens of migrants stranded in the desert without food or shelter. Many fled Chile following far-right candidate Jose Antonio Kast’s deportation threats, only to find themselves trapped in no-man’s-land as both countries tighten controls. Families, including children, say they have gone days without eating as soldiers block their passage and no aid reaches the camp.
