The 39 families, which include a number of pregnant women, left Costa Rica last Thursday on a flight to El Salvador, from where they traveled in four buses through Guatemala to the Mexican border.

The National Migration Institute, or INM, provided the 184 Cubans with a provisional visitor's document granting them up to 20 days to reach the United States by their own means, where they hope to take advantage of the benefits offered by the Cuban Adjustment Act, popularly known as "wet foot, dry foot."

From Jan. 1 to Feb. 4, the INM delegation in Chiapas has received "2,259 foreigners of Cuban origin."

In 2015, the INM attended 12,102 Cubans who received the same benefits, it said.
