Thousands of would-be migrants are stranded on the border between Guatemala and Mexico after Mexican police blocked their bid to reach the US.
هزاران مهاجر احتمالی در مرز بین گواتمالا و مکزیک گیر افتاده اند پس از اینکه پلیس مکزیک مسدود کرد راهشان را برای رسیدن به ایالات متحده.

On Friday some tried to force their way across the frontier bridge, reportedly throwing rocks at riot police.
The officers used tear gas to push back the crowd, most of whom are from Honduras.
President Trump, who has threatened to cut aid to Honduras over the issue, thanked Mexico for holding back the group.
The migrants, whose numbers include children and elderly people, say they are simply trying to escape violence and poverty.
Jari Dixon, an opposition politician in Honduras, tweeted on Monday that the caravan was not "seeking the American dream" but "fleeing the Honduras nightmare".
جری دیکسون، سیاستمدار اپوزیسیون در هندوراس، روز دوشنبه در توییتر نوشت که کاروان "به دنبال رویای آمریکایی نیست" بلکه دارند " از کابوس هندوراس فرار" میکنند.
These pictures capture the scenes unfolding on the Guatemala-Mexico border.
