About fifty Haitians illegally in the United States were deported Thursday to their country, plagued by gang violence, according to a Haitian immigration official.
A total of 40 men and 12 women landed Thursday at the international airport of Cap-Haïtien, the country’s second city, the official said.
In March, more than 480 human rights organizations called for a moratorium on deportations to Haiti, sending a letter to Joe Biden, Antony Blinken and Alejandro Mayorkas.
