-

More than 700 children separated from their parents at the Us-mexico border have not been reunited with their families, the US government said.

More than 2,500 over-fives have been taken from their parents since April 6. A San Diego judge had set a deadline of midnight on Thursday to reunite the families.

The government said the remaining children were now in foster care or with other relatives – 431 of the parents having been deported.
