Article: "Murdered bodies found in Mexico 'were migrants'"
1. 72 people were found murdered at a ranch in Mexico. They were migrants from Honduras, El Salvador, and Brazil, among other Central and Southern American countries. A survivor told officials that they had been kidnapped by an armed gang that are suspected to be drug traffickers and were then killed when they refused to work for the gang. Mexico's government condemned the killings. Marines, who had been summoned by the survivor, had discovered the bodies piled on each other in a room. This highlights Mexico's two largest problems: drug trafficking and illegal migration.
2. This happened recently, on Tuesday, August 24th. It is breaking news that hasn't been discussed much.
3. Questions I have: If these things are happening so often, what is the government doing to try and stop them? If this is a known site about fierce fighting between cartels, why does this keep happening? It might help to learn more about the specifics of the other instances where mass graves have been found.
