A handful of Central American migrants scaled the border fence dividing the U.S. and Mexico on Sunday (April 29) during a demonstration in support of the migrants.
On the ground, dozens carried signs, sang and chanted in support of Hondurans, Guatemalans and Salvadorans who drew the wrath of President Donald Trump in a month-long caravan to the U.S. border.
Most of the group of about 400 travelers who arrived in border city Tijuana on buses over the past couple of days said they intended to legally seek asylum in San Diego later on Sunday, but lawyers advising the group gave them stark advice – not everyone will be successful.
Death threats from local gangs, the murder of family members, retaliatory rape, and political persecution back home prompted them to flee, the migrants and lawyers say.
