## Key points

- Dozens left Honduras in a new migrant caravan.
- Some hoped US election results would ease border restrictions.
- Violence and extortion were also cited as reasons to leave.

## Summary

Dozens of Honduran migrants set off from San Pedro Sula on 3 November, forming the country’s third caravan since September. Many hoped Democratic gains in the US midterm elections might weaken President Donald Trump’s border enforcement, while violence and extortion in Honduras were also driving people to leave.

The caravan reportedly relied on WhatsApp groups and TikTok videos to share departure times, route updates and warnings about police and military. A US Embassy official urged migrants not to make the journey and warned that organisers could face visa revocations. Honduras has about 24 killings per 100,000 people, roughly four times the global average, according to the article.
