Summary
Hundreds of thousands of Haitians are being torn from their homes and sent across a dangerous border following mass deportations ordered by the Dominican Republic, despite calls from the UN to halt the operation due to escalating violence and hunger in Haiti. The move has deepened family separations and fear among residents, as immigration agents use physical traits to identify those they deem as Haitian. Families are struggling to reunite, and officials face pressure over detaining vulnerable groups like breastfeeding women and children, highlighting the human cost of this crackdown on a nation in turmoil.
