Four more third-country deportees arrive in Eswatini from US


Eswatini has received four more third-country deportees from the United States.
The four, two Somalis, a Tanzanian, and a Sudanese, arrived late on Wednesday at Matsapha Maximum-Security Correctional Centre outside the capital.
They join 15 others people convicted of serious crimes that were sent to the tiny Southern African kingdom last year under US deals with several African nations to accept undocumented migrants.

The facility expects around 140 more deportees.
Donald Trump’s administration has been sending deportees to Eswatini since last July, in a deal that earned the small Southern African country 5.1 million dollars.
