Since 2021 the Bolivia–Chile border has been a major point of entry of irregular
Venezuelan migrants into Chile.[5] Migrants are aided in the crossing by
human smugglers.[6] Irregular migration has been particularly troublesome for the Chilean border town of
Colchane.[6][7]
Indigenous
Aymara communities live on both sides of the border.[8]
