1. New data revealed by Panamanian authorities shows an increase in the number of people crossing the Darién Gap last month.
The increase is being attributed to more Venezuelans leaving the country after the results of the July 28 elections.
President Nicolás Maduro says he won a third term, which international observers dispute, and has cracked down against protests demanding he show the vote count.
2. Former Bolivian President Evo Morales is threatening to call for street blockades and a massive strike in response to an arrest warrant against him.
Morales is accused of statutory rape in a case stemming from 2020, charges he says are politically motivated to stop him from trying to run in next year's presidential election.
Another march called for by Morales last month ended in skirmishes between his supporters and police in the capital, La Paz.
