UK Expands Rwanda Deportation Policy to Include Rejected Asylum Seekers

New Home Office directive extends deportation eligibility to tens of thousands with failed asylum claims.

Home Secretary James Cleverly confirms the inclusion of rejected asylum seekers in the Rwanda deportation plan.
The policy aims to deter illegal Channel crossings by broadening the scope of deportable individuals.
Critics argue the move will drive asylum seekers underground and exacerbate fear and uncertainty.
Human rights organizations express concerns over the welfare and safety of those being deported.
The government continues to face legal and ethical challenges over the controversial policy.
