Migrant Caravan Swells to 600 Heading North Through Mexico
The group has grown to more than 600 as migrants from several countries join some who plan to cross into the United States.
- A significant caravan of over 600 migrants from Honduras is currently traversing Mexico toward the US border, having begun with 200-400 Honduran migrants who departed San Pedro Sula before expanding as individuals from El Salvador, Guatemala, Ecuador and Haiti joined the group known as 'Faith and Hope'.
- President Donald Trump made illegal immigration central to his electoral victory and has since declared a national emergency at the US-Mexico border, deploying active-duty military and National Guard troops while imposing extensive asylum restrictions.
- Border apprehensions reached 8,870 in August 2026, while the Trump administration claims illegal crossings have decreased by about 94% compared with the Joe Biden administration over the past 16 months.
- The caravan has intensified political debate ahead of midterm elections, with Trump facing a CNN-SSRS poll showing only about a third of Americans approve of his performance, lower than his 2018 approval levels.
- As the caravan progresses through Mexico, Newsweek reported that members pursue different objectives—some intending to cross into the US and others seeking employment in Mexico, while social media users have questioned the timing and funding sources.
