Biden Administration Resumes Deportation Flights to Haiti Amid Escalating Violence

The U.S. has restarted deportation flights to Haiti, sending around 50 Haitians back to a nation grappling with severe gang violence and political instability.

The first deportation flight in several months landed in Cap-Haïtien, Haiti, as the country faces a surge in gang violence and a lack of governmental control.
Human rights groups and advocates have condemned the resumption of flights, labeling them as inhumane and dangerous for the deportees.
Over 33,000 people have recently fled Haiti's capital due to escalating violence, overwhelming local authorities and services.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has emphasized its commitment to enforcing immigration laws, despite the humanitarian crisis in Haiti.
Political pressures and upcoming elections in the U.S. are influencing the administration's strict enforcement of deportation policies.
