The U.S. government currently has a ban on U.S. commercial flights to Haiti&#8217;s capital through early September because of ongoing gang violence.<\/p>\n<p>The deportees were clad in white, and many covered their faces out of safety as journalists filmed their arrival. Nearly all declined to talk, with some fearing being targeted by gangs that control an estimated 70% of Port-au-Prince and swaths of land beyond.<\/p>\n<p>The deportees included TPS holders and Haitians who had served prison sentences, said Jean N\u00e9got Bonheur Delva, director general of Haiti&#8217;s National Office of Migration.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is not the Haitian state that asks for them to be sent back,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Our mission is to welcome migrants of forced return. \u2026 We welcome them with the aim of accompanying them to their home.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Delva noted that some of the deportees were not born in Haiti, although they are of Haitian descent.<\/p>\n<p>He said that several deportees planned to travel to Haiti&#8217;s southern region, a dangerous journey because gangs control the main routes leading to that area and are known to randomly open fire on vehicles passing through.<\/p>\n<p>Others are going to Haiti&#8217;s western region, he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There is one migrant who knows nothing about Haiti because he said he was coming from the Dominican Republic; that&#8217;s where he was born,&#8221; Delva said. He said the government would attempt to reunify him with any potential relatives in Haiti or the Dominican Republic, where his mother and father live.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed__float-wrap\">\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\" data-ads=\"{\" extrawordcount=\"\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/08\/21\/132b2813-72a0-40f9-8626-6ca8cb511f73\/thumbnail\/620x368\/6fecd8330231a24881e7ddbdc9c6d4e0\/haiti-deportees-aptn.jpg#\" alt=\"Plane carrying Haitian deportees from U.S. \" height=\"368\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/08\/21\/132b2813-72a0-40f9-8626-6ca8cb511f73\/thumbnail\/620x368\/6fecd8330231a24881e7ddbdc9c6d4e0\/haiti-deportees-aptn.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/08\/21\/132b2813-72a0-40f9-8626-6ca8cb511f73\/thumbnail\/1240x736\/713e61e64c4ea996dca2b093b3481268\/haiti-deportees-aptn.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">Haitian deportees, dressed in white, disembark from a plane in Cap-Haitien after being sent back from the U.S. on Aug. 21, 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                APTN<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Immigration officials in Haiti on Thursday offered deportees a maximum of $65 and something to drink and eat.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Those who cannot reach their homes today, we will host them in secure spaces and the next day the process will continue until all migrants return home as they should,&#8221;

So you&#8217;d be sending people \u2026 back to hell,&#8221; DeWine said. &#8220;Very few of these Haitians will voluntarily go back to Haiti. If they have to leave, they&#8217;ll go someplace else. They want to work. They want to support their family. They don&#8217;t want to go back to Haiti.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Viles Dorsainvil, who runs a support center for Haitians in Springfield, told CBS News in late July, &#8220;We&#8217;ve been praying for the best, but now we are facing the worst.&#8221; He said he fears &#8220;it will be a nightmare for us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Haiti&#8217;s Group Supporting Refugees and Returnees has decried the deportations.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Haiti is not ready to receive this number of migrants who were in the TPS program,&#8221; it said in a statement Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>The group noted that more than 140,000 Haitians have been deported from neighboring countries, including the Dominican Republic, in the first half of the year alone.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We note that there are no government measures in place to adequately assist these migrants,&#8221; the group said.<\/p>\n<p>It added that many of those deported &#8220;have seen their dreams go up in smoke; the bonds they had already made in their communities are broken. Many are experiencing family separation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. had conducted about one deportation flight to Haiti since December 2023, according to Human Rights First&#8217;s ICE Flight Monitor, which tracks flight data. Since December 2025, flights have originated in Alexandria, Louisiana, a hub for ICE deportation flights, with a stop in Miami on the way to Cap-Haitien International Airport.<\/p>\n<section
