US Deports Over 100 Chinese Migrants in Second Repatriation Flight of 2024

The Department of Homeland Security underscores its commitment to reducing irregular migration in cooperation with China.

The recent deportation flight carried 131 Chinese nationals back to China, marking the second large-scale removal this year.
These deportations are part of a broader effort by the US to deter illegal migration, following a significant increase in Chinese nationals crossing the US-Mexico border.
Since June, US Border Patrol encounters have decreased by over 55%, coinciding with nearly 400 international repatriation flights.
The Biden administration's temporary suspension of certain noncitizens entering the southern border has been a key factor in reducing illegal entries.
Amnesty International has raised concerns about the treatment of Chinese migrants, citing anti-Chinese sentiment and harsh conditions in detention.
