Honduran Migrant Caravan On The Move

COPAN, Honduras (AP) – More than 1,000 Honduran migrants have pushed their way into Guatemala without registering, a portion of a larger migrant caravan that had left the Honduran city of San Pedro Sula before dawn. Honduran migrants are driven by deepening poverty and the hope of a warmer reception if they can reach the United States border. They quickly dispersed along the heavily trafficked highway to border crossings in western Honduras on Friday. Estimates of their number ranged from 2,000 to more than twice that. The migrants leave with little certainty about how far they will make it. Regional governments appear united in stopping their progress.
