A significant change has occurred in deportation practices. Mexicans are now being sent to countries other than their own. Official data shows that nearly 2,300 Mexicans have been deported to Guatemala, and dozens more to Honduras, this year.

This shift marks a departure from previous practices, where Mexicans were almost exclusively returned to their home country. The reasons behind this change are not fully explained, but it comes amid expanded agreements with Latin American countries to combat criminal groups.

Further details about this development are available, including the potential implications for Mexico and its government, which has protested recent incidents involving Mexican citizens.
