Thousands of Central American migrants resumed their march toward the United States on Oct. 21, after efforts by Mexican officials failed to halt the advance at the Guatemala–Mexico border.

The numbers jumped to about 5,000 over the weekend, according to The Associated Press, as the throng set off for the Mexican town of Tapachula in a line stretching about a mile.
