Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported11m ago
On Monday, a panel of independent UN experts warned that US deportation policies are triggering a cascade of human rights abuses. The experts stated that the Trump administration's practice of deporting thousands of individuals to countries where they have no personal links significantly increases the risks of torture, ill-treatment, and enforced disappearance.
The warnings follow an investigation conducted by an international consortium of journalists. According to the UN experts, the United States has established deportation agreements with more than 35 countries and has already carried out the expulsion of at least 23,000 third-country nationals under these arrangements.
