Pressuring South and Central American countries to do their part in stemming illegal immigration to the United States has been a major approach of the Trump administration.

El Salvador is increasing its efforts to enforce immigration in an attempt to stem the flow of immigrants to the southern border of the U.S.

El Salvador has stepped up efforts to stop migrants en route to the United States by deploying approximately 800 police officers to its borders with Guatemala and Honduras.

Police will not be alone, however. Roughly 350 immigration officials will take part in the effort and review identification and travel documents for those attempting to cross.
