Eswatini will repatriate five migrants deported from the US from countries that refused to accept them. Criticism over their safety persists

Eswatini will repatriate five migrants deported by the US who have been convicted of serious crimes. This is the first deportation to a "third country" since the US Supreme Court ruling. Although Eswatini officials say the migrants do not pose a threat, criticism of possible abuses in their countries of origin persists. Reactions in the country suggest concerns about human rights and treatment of migrants, and the opposition accuses the West of contempt for Africa.
