28. 尽管中美洲国家在 2014 年中美洲移民儿童大量流入北美之后采取了若干措施，但这一现象仍在继续。2015 年和 2016 年，孤身或失散移民儿童人数增加，驱逐出境人数也随之增加。据移民组织称，被遣返儿童人数最多的三个国家是萨尔瓦多、危地马拉和洪都拉斯。离国儿童的年龄越来越小，越来越多儿童经常是孤身上路，他们面临的风险与日俱增。
28. Despite the measures taken by the Central American States after the major inflows of Central American migrant children to North America in 2014, the phenomenon continues to grow. In 2015 and 2016 the number of children migrating unaccompanied or with their families increased, as did the number of deportations. According to IOM, the three countries to which the largest numbers of children are returned are El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. Increasingly, the children are younger, they are more frequently travelling alone, and the risks they face have increased.
