Trump plans to deport Iranians to violence-plagued central African nation in new deal
The Trump administration plans to deport Iranian asylum-seekers and other migrants to the Central African Republic (CAR) under a third-country agreement. The first flight could include 20 people, including Syrians and Afghans, with two Iranian women facing potential torture if returned to Iran. CAR, a politically unstable nation with a history of coups, will house deportees in Bangui without immediate repatriation.
