Migrant Caravan

About 500 Honduran migrants left San Pedro Sula on Tuesday by public bus for Corinto on the Honduras–Guatemala border, citing lack of employment and economic hardship as they begin their journey northward toward the United States.

Ledvin Alexander, accused of attempted murder and assault in Honduras, was arrested on October 4 in Chiapas, Mexico, after traveling through a migrant caravan; Mexican authorities will coordinate his deportation to face justice.

The National Human Rights Commission (CONADEH) will coordinate with Mexican authorities to deliver humanitarian aid to over 400 Hondurans who departed in migrant caravans in recent days, according to the ombudsman's human-mobility coordinator.

A human-rights official says a Honduran migrant caravan with over 400 people in Guatemala reflects citizens' unmet needs—lack of jobs, free healthcare, security—and is driven by drought and floods, not political manipulation.

A caravan of about 300 Hondurans and other Central Americans dubbed 'Fe y Esperanza' arrived in Tapachula, Mexico, after departing San Pedro Sula and crossing Guatemala, with members seeking to continue north — some aiming for the United States and others hoping to stay in Mexico if they can regularize their status.

A caravan of about 300 migrants, predominantly from Honduras, crossed into Mexico from Guatemala on September 25, intending to reach the United States or settle in Mexico, citing economic hardship as their reason for leaving.

Guatemalan migration authorities say the caravan that left San Pedro Sula on Sunday has broken up into small groups moving independently, with about 250 of the roughly 400 Hondurans identified between Monday and Tuesday having entered legally, 106 ordered to leave after irregular entry, and 10 teenagers aged 15–17 placed under state protection.

Guatemala's welfare ministry is providing protection, medical care, and shelter to 10 Honduran adolescents who entered the country as part of a migrant caravan that departed San Pedro Sula, while officials assess their needs and coordinate with Honduran authorities on next steps.

A group of deported Hondurans arrived at San Pedro Sula's main bus terminal on September 22, while another caravan of Hondurans continues through Guatemala toward Mexico.

Approximately 400 Hondurans who departed San Pedro Sula on Sunday crossed into Guatemala at El Cinchado; Guatemalan authorities registered over 250 who entered legally, issued deportation orders to more than 100 who entered irregularly, and identified eight unaccompanied minors.

Lawyer Rodolfo Colindres argues that a new migrant caravan is being propelled by false hopes, saying US immigration restrictions make the chances of reaching the country virtually zero.

Dozens of Honduran men, women, and families left San Pedro Sula on September 20, heading toward the Corinto border crossing with Guatemala in what appears to be the first such caravan of 2026.

Juan Flores, president of the Fundación 15 de Septiembre, alerted Honduran and U.S. authorities to social-media promotion of a migrant caravan scheduled to depart San Pedro Sula on June 20, saying unscrupulous groups are organizing it.
