Eswatini: A plane carrying five migrants convicted of serious crimes, including rape and child molestation, has landed in Eswatini as part of a broader strategy by the US to deport undocumented criminals. This move is part of the Trump administration’s intensified efforts to address the issue of undocumented migrants with criminal records.

According to France24.com, the deported individuals were initially meant to be returned to their home countries, which include Vietnam, Jamaica, Cuba, Yemen, and Laos. However, they have instead been rerouted to African nations, with Eswatini being the latest country to receive them. This quiet and controversial approach has seen the US expanding this deportation strategy across the African continent.
