Police in Guatemala have fired tear gas to disperse thousands of Honduran migrants trying to make their way to the United States.
Security forces surrounded the group on a highway in Vado Hondo, near the border with Honduras.
Some were arrested as they tried to break through a police blockade and head for Mexico.
Authorities said they would not let anyone in without a COVID-19 test or the right papers.
Honduras has long suffered widespread crime and poverty, but the pandemic and then a series of storms in November have made life worse for many.
