At least 22 Mexicans were among the migrants found dead in a trailer truck in the US state of Texas, President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador of Mexico said Tuesday, as he put the total number of fatalities at 50.
"It's a tremendous misfortune... so far there are 50 dead: 22 from Mexico, seven from Guatemala, two from Honduras and 19 still without information about their nationality," the Mexican leader said at a morning press conference.
