COLOMBIA, La Parada: Laundry dries on a close-line in La Parada, near Cucuta, Colombia on September 26, 2015. Deported from Venezuela, Colombians are now living in makeshift shelters, waiting to return. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro announced on September 28, 2015 that he will let the deported Colombians return to Venezuela and legalize their status. In August, President Maduro closed the borders with Colombia, in what he called a crackdown on smuggling and crime.
