US child migrants: Over 700 not reunited with families by deadline
Some 711 migrant children taken from their parents at the US-Mexico border have not yet been returned to them, despite a court-ordered deadline.
US government lawyers said the children were not eligible to be reunited with their parents.
The reasons given included a lack of confirmed family ties, or a parent having a criminal record or a communicable disease.
In 431 cases the parents were no longer in the US, a court filing said.
