Caravan left San Pedro Sula on Friday after Mike Pence urged Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala to tell citizens to stay home 
  
 A group of more than 1,600 Honduran migrants who are attempting to reach the US border overland have crossed into with Guatemala – despite warnings that they would be turned away at the border. 
  
 Singing the Honduran national anthem, praying and chanting, “Yes, we can,” the group, who say they are fleeing violence and poverty, crossed the border on Monday afternoon and headed towards the city of Esquipulas. 
  
 “We are not criminals, we are migrants,” said Keilin Umana, a pregnant nurse who told the Associated Press that she had fled her home after receiving death threats from gang members. 
  
 The migrant caravan set off from the city of San Pedro Sula on Friday, the day after the US vice-president, Mike Pence, urged the presidents of Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala to persuade their citizens to stay home. 
  
 “Tell your people: don’t put your families at risk by taking the dangerous journey north to attempt to enter the United States illegally,” said Pence at a regional security event in Washington DC. 
  
 The Guatemalan government, which is seeking US support in its controversial attempt to shut down the UN-backed crime fighting force investigating the president and his close allies for corruption, pledged to comply with Pence’s demands and halt the mass migration. 
  
 In a statement, the country’s Institute of Migration (IGM) condemned the migrant caravan as illegal, and vowed to stop the migrants from crossing its border: “Guatemala does not promote or endorse irregular migration in any forms, [and] therefore rejects movements organized for unlawful purposes which distort human rights, like migration, for their own end.” 
  
 About 100 Guatemalan police officers met the caravan at the border, but after a tense standoff of about two hours, the migrants began walking again.

 The migrant caravan has swelled from 160 to 1,600 since setting out last week from San Pedro Sula, which has become one of the world’s most dangerous cities thanks to a toxic combination of gang and state-sponsored violence, corruption and impunity. 
  
 Jari Dixon, a Honduran congressman, tweeted: “They are not seeking the American dream – they’re fleeing the Honduran nightmare.” 
  
 The group includes dozens of families with infants and children who hope travelling in numbers will reduce the risk posed by criminal gangs that prey on vulnerable migrants. The passage through Mexico is one of the world’s most perilous migration corridors.

 This is the second Central American migrant caravan this year. In April, Donald Trump threatened to cut foreign aid after hundreds of people, mainly Hondurans, applied for asylum in the US. Since then, thousands of Central American children have been separated from their parents at the US border as part of an anti-immigration crackdown. 
  
 But rampant violence and poverty in Central America continues to force people to abandon their homes in search of safety and jobs. 
  
 Honduras remains one of the most dangerous countries in the world, despite official figures that claim a record-breaking drop in murder rates. Two-thirds of Hondurans live in poverty, with remittances accounting for a fifth of the country’s GDP. ||||| The United States has strongly informed the President of Honduras that if the large Caravan of people heading to the U.S. is not stopped and brought back to Honduras, no more money or aid will be given to Honduras, effective immediately! ||||| Honduran migrants walk past a roadblock of Guatemalan police as they make their way to the U.S., in Esquipulas, Guatemala, Monday, Oct. 15, 2018.

 ESQUIPULAS, Guatemala (AP) — Hundreds of Hondurans hoping to reach the United States bedded down for the night in the Guatemalan town of Esquipulas after that country's authorities blinked first in attempts to halt their advance. 
  
 U.S. President Donald Trump, meanwhile, threatened on Tuesday to cut aid to Honduras if it doesn't stop the impromptu caravan of migrants. 
  
 "The United States has strongly informed the President of Honduras that if the large Caravan of people heading to the U.S. is not stopped and brought back to Honduras, no more money or aid will be given to Honduras, effective immediately," Trump tweeted Tuesday. 
  
 The group estimated at 1,600 to 2,000 people fleeing poverty and violence in Honduras marched into Guatemala in sweltering heat Monday, twice pushing past outnumbered police sent to stop them — first at the border and then at a roadblock just outside Esquipulas. 
  
 After those encounters, Mexico's immigration authority sent out a fresh warning late Monday that the migrants would have to satisfy Mexican officials individually and that only those meeting requirements would be allowed to enter. 
  
 But it remains unclear if governments in the region — many of whose own people are migrants — can summon the political will to physically halt the determined border-crossers. Honduras' ability to stop the caravan also may be limited because it has already moved into Guatemala. 
  
 Trump did not follow through on a similar threat to the Central American nation in April over an earlier caravan, which eventually petered out. 
  
 The exhausted migrants entered Esquipulas late Monday and sought out food and places to sleep, hobbling on blistered feet. 
  
 The hundreds of people fleeing poverty and violence in Honduras bedded down wherever they could, with some sleeping on the grass in a church parking lot; others crowded the floors of a migrant shelter and a sports hall. 
  
 Few carried food and some residents began to organize to help feed them. Some migrants asked for money, others passing a bakery were handed bread. 
  
 The migrants arrived at the Guatemalan border singing the Honduran national anthem, praying and chanting, "Yes, we can." The group defied an order by the Guatemalan government that they not enter. 
  
 "We have rights," the migrants shouted. 
  
 Keilin Umana, a 21-year-old who is two months pregnant, said she was moved to migrate to save herself and her unborn child after she was threatened with death. 
  
 Umana, a nurse, said she had been walking for four days. "We are not criminals — we are migrants," she said. 
  
 Many in the caravan traveled light, with just backpacks and bottles of water. Some pushed toddlers in strollers or carried them on their shoulders. 
  
 Carlos Cortez, a 32-year-old farmer traveling on foot with his 7-year-old son, said poverty back home made it impossible to support a family. 
  
 "Every day I earn about $5," Cortez said. "That isn't enough to feed my family." 
  
 The caravan was met at the border by about 100 Guatemalan police officers. After a standoff of about two hours, the migrants began walking again. Officers did nothing to stop them, but accompanied them several miles (kilometers) into Guatemalan territory. 
  
 Officers then set up the roadblock about a mile (2 kilometers) outside Esquipulas. About 250 police kept them from advancing for three hours, telling them they had to return to the border to go through immigration. The migrants refused to budge and eventually officers again let them pass. 
  
 The caravan began as about 160 people who first gathered early Friday to depart from San Pedro Sula, one of Honduras' most dangerous places, figuring that traveling as a group would make them less vulnerable to robbery, assault and other dangers common on the migratory path through Central America and Mexico. 
  
 Local media coverage prompted hundreds more to join during the weekend as the group moved toward Guatemala. 
  
 A day before the caravan formed, U.S. Vice President Mike Pence had urged leaders in Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala to persuade their citizens to stay home and avoid the long, risky journey to the United States. 
  
 Historian Dana Frank, an expert on human rights and U.S. policy in Honduras, said Monday that the latest group could have political implications in the United States with the midterm elections coming up. 
  
 She said that "some in the United States will be quick to raise alarms about a supposed dangerous immigrant invasion" and that "others will view these migrants with compassion and as further evidence of the need for comprehensive immigration reform." 
  
 Frank said the caravan's rapid growth underscores "how desperate the Honduran people are — that they'd begin walking toward refuge in the United States with only a day pack full of belongings." 
  
 Honduras is largely dominated by murderous gangs that prey on families and businesses, and routinely sees homicide rates that are among the highest in the world.

– Back in April, a "caravan" of immigrants marching across Central America toward the US border drew the attention of President Trump. Now comes round two. On Tuesday, Trump issued a warning to Honduras, where most of the immigrants in the latest group are from: "The United States has strongly informed the President of Honduras that if the large Caravan of people heading to the U.S. is not stopped and brought back to Honduras, no more money or aid will be given to Honduras, effective immediately!" Background and developments: The caravan: This one started last week with about 160 people in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, which the AP calls one of the most dangerous places in one of the most dangerous countries. As the group began walking out of the country, others joined, and most estimates put the current number near 2,000. The Washington Post, however, notes that volunteers suggest it's closer to 3,000, bigger than April's group. The path: The group already has crossed the border into Guatemala, after police in the latter country didn't do much to stop them, reports the Guardian. Then it will be on to Mexico and the US, though if history holds, many of the migrants will break off and remain in Central America. Unlike in April, Mexico has warned that this time it will turn back anyone with improper visa requirements.
Nyhetsartikel: Caravan lämnade San Pedro Sula på fredagen efter Mike Pence uppmanade Honduras, El Salvador och Guatemala att säga till medborgarna att stanna hemma En grupp på mer än 1 600 honduranska migranter som försöker nå USA:s gräns över land har korsat in med Guatemala – trots varningar om att de skulle bli avvisade vid gränsen. Sjungande den honduranska nationalsången, bedjande och mässande: »Ja, det kunna vi», gick gruppen, som säger sig fly våld och fattigdom, över gränsen på måndag eftermiddag och begav sig mot staden Esquipulas. “Vi är inte brottslingar, vi är invandrare,” sade Keilin Umana, en gravid sjuksköterska som berättade Associated Press att hon hade flytt sitt hem efter att ha fått dödshot från gängmedlemmar. Den invandrade karavanen gav sig av från staden San Pedro Sula på fredagen, dagen efter USA:s vicepresident Mike Pence, uppmanade presidenterna i Honduras, El Salvador och Guatemala att övertala sina medborgare att stanna hemma. “Säg till ditt folk: inte sätta era familjer i fara genom att ta den farliga resan norrut för att försöka ta sig in i USA olagligt,” sade Pence vid en regional säkerhetshändelse i Washington DC. Den guatemalanska regeringen, som söker USA:s stöd i sitt kontroversiella försök att stänga av den FN-stödda brottsbekämpande styrkan som utreder presidenten och hans nära allierade för korruption, lovade att rätta sig efter Pences krav och stoppa massmigrationen. I ett uttalande fördömde Institutet för migration (IGM) den migrerande karavanen som olaglig, och lovade att stoppa migranterna från att passera gränsen: “Guatemala främjar eller stöder inte irreguljär migration i någon form, [och] därför förkastar rörelser organiserade i olagliga syften som snedvrider de mänskliga rättigheterna, som migration, för deras egen skull.” Omkring 100 guatemalanska poliser mötte karavanen vid gränsen, men efter ett spänt dödläge på cirka två timmar började migranterna gå igen. Anmäl dig till USA:s nya morgonbriefing Migrantkaravanen har svällt från 160 till 1 600 sedan förra veckan från San Pedro Sula, som har blivit en av världens farligaste städer tack vare en giftig kombination av gäng- och statligt sponsrat våld, korruption och straffrihet. Jari Dixon, en honduransk kongressledamot, tweetade: “De söker inte den amerikanska drömmen – de flyr den honduranska mardrömmen.” Gruppen inkluderar dussintals familjer med spädbarn och barn som hoppas att resa i antal kommer att minska risken för kriminella gäng som lever på utsatta migranter.

I april hotade Donald Trump med att skära ner på utländskt bistånd efter att hundratals personer, främst honduraner, ansökt om asyl i USA. Sedan dess har tusentals centralamerikanska barn skilts från sina föräldrar vid USA:s gräns som en del av ett antiinvandringsnedslag. Men våld och fattigdom i Centralamerika fortsätter att tvinga människor att överge sina hem i jakt på säkerhet och arbete. Honduras är fortfarande ett av de farligaste länderna i världen, trots officiella siffror som hävdar en rekordhög minskning av antalet mord. Två tredjedelar av honduranerna lever i fattigdom, och penningförsändelser står för en femtedel av landets BNP.

Polisen stoppade migranterna i flera timmar men de resande vägrade återvända till gränsen och fick så småningom passera. (AP Photo/Moises Castillo) (Associated Press) ESQUIPULAS, Guatemala (AP) – Hundratals honduraner som hoppades nå USA låg för natten i den guatemalanska staden Esquipulas efter att landets myndigheter blinkade först i försök att stoppa deras framryckning. USA:s president Donald Trump hotade under tiden på tisdagen med att skära ner biståndet till Honduras om det inte stoppar invandrares improviserade karavan. "Förenta staterna har starkt informerat Honduras president om att om den stora karavanen av människor på väg till USA inte stoppas och förs tillbaka till Honduras, kommer inga mer pengar eller bistånd att ges till Honduras, med omedelbar verkan," Trump tweetade tisdag. Gruppen uppskattade att 1.600 till 2.000 människor flydde från fattigdom och våld i Honduras marscherade in i Guatemala i glödande hetta måndagen, två gånger knuffade förbi fler än den polis som skickades för att stoppa dem — först vid gränsen och sedan vid en vägspärr strax utanför Esquipulas. Efter dessa möten sände Mexikos invandringsmyndighet ut en ny varning sent på måndagen om att migranterna skulle behöva tillfredsställa mexikanska tjänstemän individuellt och att endast de krav som uppfylls skulle tillåtas att komma in. Men det är fortfarande oklart om regeringarna i regionen – många av deras egna invånare är invandrare – kan få den politiska viljan att fysiskt stoppa de beslutsamma gränspassagerarna. Honduras förmåga att stoppa husvagnen kan också vara begränsad eftersom den redan har flyttat in i Guatemala. Trump fullföljde inte ett liknande hot mot den centralamerikanska nationen i april över en tidigare karavan, som till slut petade ut sig. De utmattade migranterna kom in i Esquipulas sent på måndagen och sökte efter mat och sovplatser, humlande på blåsor i fötterna. De hundratals människor som flydde från fattigdom och våld i Honduras låg där de kunde, och några sov på gräset på en kyrkparkering. Andra trängdes på golvet i ett skyddshem för invandrare och en idrottshall. Få bar på mat och några invånare började organisera sig för att hjälpa till att mata dem. En del invandrare bad om pengar, andra som passerade ett bageri fick bröd. Invandrarna anlände till gränsen till Guatemala och sjöng den honduranska nationalsången och bad och ropade: "Ja, det kan vi." Gruppen trotsade en order från Guatemalas regering att de inte skulle komma in. "Vi har rättigheter", skrek migranterna. Keilin Umana, en 21-åring som är gravid i andra månaden, sa att hon flyttade för att rädda sig själv och sitt ofödda barn efter att hon hotades med döden. Umana, en sjuksköterska, sa att hon hade gått i fyra dagar. "Vi är inte brottslingar — vi är invandrare", sade hon. Många i husvagnen reste lätt, med bara ryggsäckar och flaskor med vatten. Somliga knuffade på småbarn i barnvagnar eller bar dem på axlarna. Carlos Cortez, en 32-årig bonde som reste till fots med sin 7-årige son, sade att fattigdom hemma gjorde det omöjligt att försörja en familj. "Varje dag tjänar jag ungefär fem dollar", sa Cortez. "Det räcker inte för att försörja min familj." Karavanen möttes vid gränsen av cirka 100 guatemalanska poliser. Efter ett dödläge på omkring två timmar började migranterna gå igen. Officerare gjorde ingenting för att hindra dem, utan följde med dem flera kilometer (kilometer) in på guatemalanskt territorium. Officerare satte sedan upp vägspärren cirka en mil (2 kilometer) utanför Esquipulas. Omkring 250 poliser hindrade dem från att avancera i tre timmar och sade att de måste återvända till gränsen för att gå igenom invandringen. Invandrarna vägrade att vika och så småningom lät officerare dem återigen passera. Karavanen började som cirka 160 personer som först samlades tidigt på fredagen för att avresa från San Pedro Sula, en av Honduras farligaste platser, och räknade med att resande som grupp skulle göra dem mindre sårbara för rån, överfall och andra faror som är vanliga på vandringsvägen genom Centralamerika och Mexiko. Den lokala mediabevakningen föranledde hundratals fler att ansluta sig under helgen när gruppen flyttade mot Guatemala. En dag innan karavanen bildades hade USA:s vicepresident Mike Pence uppmanat ledare i Honduras, El Salvador och Guatemala att övertala sina medborgare att stanna hemma och undvika den långa, riskfyllda resan till USA. Historikern Dana Frank, expert på mänskliga rättigheter och USA:s politik i Honduras, sade på måndagen att den senaste gruppen skulle kunna få politiska konsekvenser i USA i och med att valet efter halva tiden närmar sig. Hon sade att "några i USA kommer att vara snabba med att väcka larm om en förmodad farlig invandrarinvasion" och att "andra kommer att betrakta dessa migranter med medkänsla och som ytterligare bevis på behovet av en omfattande invandringsreform." Frank sa att karavanens snabba tillväxt understryker "hur desperat honduranska folket är – att de skulle börja vandra mot tillflykten i USA med bara en dagspack full av tillhörigheter." Honduras domineras till stor del av mordiska gäng som lever på familjer och företag, och rutinmässigt ser man mordfrekvensen som är bland de högsta i världen. ___ Associerad pressskribent Martha Mendoza i Santa Cruz, Kalifornien, bidrog till denna rapport.

U.S. President Donald Trump, while on Tuesday, threatened to cut aid to Honduras unless it stops immigrants' improvised caravan. "The United States has strongly informed the President of Honduras that if the great caravan of people en route to the United States is not stopped and brought back to Honduras, no more money or aid will be given to Honduras, effective immediately," Trump tweeted Tuesday. The group estimated that 1,600 to 2,000 people fled poverty and violence in Honduras marched into Guatemala in glowing heat Monday, twice pushing past more than the police sent to stop them — first at the border and then at a roadblock just outside Esquipulas. Following these meetings, the Mexican Immigration Authority sent out a new warning late Monday that migrants would have to satisfy Mexican officials individually and that only the requirements met would be allowed to enter. However, it remains unclear whether the governments of the region – many of their own inhabitants are immigrants – can have the political will to physically stop the determined border crossings. Honduras' ability to stop the caravan may also be limited because it has already moved into Guatemala. Trump did not pursue a similar threat to the Central American nation in April over a former caravan, which eventually poked out. The exhausted migrants entered Esquipula late Monday and searched for food and sleeping places, bumbling on blisters in their feet. The hundreds of people fleeing poverty and violence in Honduras lay where they could, and some slept on the grass in a church parking lot; others were crowded on the floor of a shelter for immigrants and a sports hall.

Carlos Cortez, a 32-year-old farmer who travelled on foot with his 7-year-old son, said poverty at home made it impossible to support a family. "Every day I make about five dollars," Cortez said. "It's not enough to support my family." The caravan was met at the border by approximately 100 Guatemalan police officers. After a deadlock of about two hours, migrants began walking again. Officers did nothing to prevent them, but accompanied them several miles (kilometres) into Guatemalan territory. Officers then set up the roadblock about a mile (2 kilometers) off Esquipulas.

– I april, en "caravan" av invandrare marscherar över Centralamerika mot den amerikanska gränsen drog uppmärksamhet av president Trump. Nu kommer rond två. På tisdag, Trump utfärdade en varning till Honduras, där de flesta av invandrarna i den senaste gruppen är från: "Förenta staterna har starkt informerat Honduras president om att om den stora Caravan av människor på väg till USA inte stoppas och förs tillbaka till Honduras, inga mer pengar eller bistånd kommer att ges till Honduras, med omedelbar verkan!" Bakgrund och utveckling: Husvagnen: Denna startade förra veckan med cirka 160 personer i San Pedro Sula, Honduras, som AP kallar en av de farligaste platserna i ett av de farligaste länderna. När gruppen började gå ut ur landet, anslöt sig andra, och de flesta beräkningar gjorde att det nuvarande antalet låg nära 2.000. Washington Post konstaterar dock att frivilliga tyder på att det är närmare 3000, större än Aprils grupp. Vägen: Gruppen har redan passerat gränsen in i Guatemala, efter att polisen i det senare landet inte gjort mycket för att stoppa dem, uppger Väktaren. Då kommer det att vara på väg till Mexiko och USA, men om historien håller kommer många av migranterna att bryta av och stanna kvar i Centralamerika. Till skillnad från i april har Mexiko varnat för att den här gången kommer att vända tillbaka vem som helst med felaktiga visumkrav.
