Eswatini says two migrants deported from the United States have returned to their home countries after the South African kingdom received them, according to a statement on Tuesday. The government does not describe any alleged wrongdoing in the reports, but confirms the deportees’ onward return.
Eswatini also indicates that other deportees have sought voluntary repatriation, including requests to “reunite with their families.” The accounts focus on the repatriation and family-related reasons for voluntary returns, rather than on the circumstances that led to their deportation from the United States. Different outlets provide only limited additional detail beyond confirming the same outcome: deported migrants are being sent back to their home countries in Eswatini’s case.
