Dominican Republic escalates mass deportations of Haitians as gang violence worsens in Haiti
The Dominican Republic has deported nearly 11,000 Haitians in the past week – as it starts to implement a controversial mass repatriation policy. It’s pledged to remove up to 10,000 Haitians a week – blaming gang violence there for an influx of people which has overwhelmed schools, clinics and hospitals.
