Dominican Republic to Start Expelling Up to 10,000 Haitians Per Week

HeadlineOct 07, 2024

The Dominican Republic says it will “immediately” begin expelling up to 10,000 undocumented Haitian residents a week despite warnings from the U.N. and rights groups about the worsening security and humanitarian situation in Haiti. Dominican President Luis Abinader has made cracking down on Haitian communities and on his country’s border with Haiti a central pillar of his presidency. The U.N. reported last month at least 3,660 people were killed in Haiti in the first half of 2024 due to gang violence. Just last week, a gang attack in central Haiti killed at least 70 people and displaced some 6,300 Haitians.
