Migration can be seen from 2 viewpoints, “emigration” and “immigration”. Depending if you are looking from the country of origin or the destination.
However, in this headline neither the origin nor the destination is mentioned, therefore it doesn’t make sense from either point of view. Therefore the viewpoint-agnostic “migrant” makes more sense to me.
Migrant to me is the more accurate word.
