Migrant caravan leaves hurricane-hit Honduras for U.S.

TEGUCIGALPA, Dec. 10 (Xinhua) -- Hundreds of Hondurans affected by last month's hurricanes Eta and Iota formed a migrant caravan headed north toward the United States, local media reported Thursday.

The first U.S.-bound caravan since the hurricanes struck in the first half of November left Honduras late Wednesday on its way to the Guatemalan border, where migrants were to arrive Thursday morning.
