TEGUCIGALPA (Reuters) - Officials from El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico on Thursday called on the United States to provide more details on migrant children still separated from their parents.

The officials held talks with James McCament, a deputy undersecretary at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, in Tegucigalpa to seek more information on families that were separated as part of U.S. President Donald Trump's "zero tolerance" policy towards illegal immigration.
