Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Honduran citizens and siblings Gustavo and Pedro Lizardo Mendoza petition for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals upholding an immigration judge's (IJ's) denial of their applications for asylum and withholding of removal. After careful consideration, we conclude that substantial evidence supports the decision. See Garcia-Milian v. Lynch, 825 F.3d 943, 945 (8th Cir. 2016). The petition for review is denied. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
. The IJ also denied protection under the Convention Against Torture, but that ruling is not before this court. See Chay-Velasquez v. Ashcroft, 367 F.3d 751, 756 (8th Cir. 2004).
