The US has begun deporting South American migrants to Liberia under a bilateral agreement, with Liberia committing to host up to 1,200 deportees over the next year. Migrants report physical abuse by ICE agents during the flight, though these allegations are unverified. This marks an unusual expansion of US deportation destinations to Africa, raising diplomatic and humanitarian concerns.
