Although only 300 metres in length x 7 metres in width, ^ this forlorn looking structure has become the scene of a MASS escape route - to neighbouring Colombia - for millions of poverty-stricken Venezuelans, some four from every five of whom are said to be affected by Latin America's worst~ever humanitarian
crisis.

Another eye-opening find, tragic. Thank you once again Arthur for updating us with information that would normally have bypassed us.

Thanks Arthur.
