New York reaches the limit of hospitality for migrants and temporarily suspends an old rule that guaranteed anyone in need "the right to a roof" by the same night. The turning point comes because of the wave of migrants at the border with Mexico.
Up to a thousand migrants now arrive in New York every day, New York Mayor Manuel Castro's chief of immigration services revealed. There are currently over 78,120 people in the city's shelter system, mostly migrants, housed between <> "shelters" and eight humanitarian relief centers.
