    MEXICO CITY, April 30 (Xinhua) -- The Mexican Red Cross (CRM) and the National Migration Agency (INM) will boost their help for Mexicans on their journey to the United States, Mexico's Interior Ministry said in a statement on Sunday.

    The two bodies support migrants through the Beta Migrant Protection Group, with the INM funding first aid, medical emergency and humanitarian assistance to all foreigners, regardless of their nationalities.

    Meanwhile, the CRM will be tasked in training federal agents, civil protection brigades, first aid organizations and non-government migration support groups, the statement said.

    Since 2004, the INM and CRM have worked together to provide a mobile clinic in Mexico's Sonora state, offering help to a large number of undocumented workers. Enditem
