Hundreds of migrants - many from Honduras, El Salvador and Nicaragua - are stranded at the Guatemala border after deportations from Mexico and the U.S.
A migrant woman from Honduras reacts after she and other Central American migrants were expelled by U.S. and Mexican officials, in El Ceibo, Guatemala August 15, 2021.EL CEIBO, Guatemala — When 25-year-old Salvadoran migrant Donovan Pedro stepped off a deportation bus at the El Ceibo border crossing that connects Mexico’s southern border with Guatemala, the situation was familiar but the place was not.
Wearing a jacket and a baseball cap, Pedro carried no suitcase or change of clothes and did not have a working cell phone. But with the pandemic exacerbating unemployment in El Salvador, he was already planning to head back to the United States via the Mexican city of Monterrey near the Texas border.From there, he planned to get across the U.S. border.
It has also urged Mexico to curb migration, prompting authorities there to quietly fly thousands of undocumented migrants from the north of the country to the south for expulsion. Others remain in limbo in El Ceibo, unsure of what to do next. Those who can afford it, stay in a local inn for about $20 a night. Others climb a steep hill to a nearby migrant shelter that can house 30 people at a time.
It said it has facilities for returnees from Mexico at other border points, like Tecun Uman, that have the capacity to provide migrant care in a “dignified and safe” manner.Luis Echeverria / Reuters
