A Venezuelan border official, checks the IDs of people while they cross the Simon Bolivar bridge on the border with Colombia, at San Antonio in Tachira state, Venezuela, August 26, 2015. Hundreds of Colombians waded across a border river with fridges, chickens and mattresses on their backs as goats and children followed under the scorching tropical sun, victims of an escalating dispute with Venezuela's government. Saying they were forced from their rickety wooden or corrugated metal homes and scared of what might happen next if they stayed inside Venezuela, they fled across the River Tachira and back into their homeland on Tuesday.
