Thousands of Central American migrants on their way to the United States were resting at the Magdalena Mixhuca Sports City in Mexico City on Tuesday, after three weeks of long journey.

People lined up to make phone calls at a Red Cross stand and to receive food and donated clothes, with city employees and volunteers helping to distribute donations and provide assistance.

The migrant caravan will continue its journey on Thursday, but it is yet uncertain whether they will meet government officials to discuss about work permits.
