Some Central American migrants moving as a caravan through Mexico will reportedly break up into smaller groups to try and cross the U.S. border.

The annual event has the largest amount of participants this year — more than 1,100 people — and organizers estimate that about 200 will not stop in Mexico City, CNN reported Thursday.

Last year, about 150 people made it all the way to the U.S. border.

The Pueblo Sin Fronteras caravan has moved hundreds of people seeking political asylum in the U.S. or Mexico by foot, bus, truck or cargo train. Once they reach the city of Puebla, just south of Mexico City, most stay to schedule appointments with consulates to apply for asylum.

They travel in groups because it is easier to make it through immigration.
