The US has deported 10 individuals to Eswatini, a move criticized by rights groups. This second batch of deportees arrives amid legal challenges to the agreement, which reportedly offers Eswatini millions for accepting up to 160 deportees. Critics argue the deal lacks parliamentary consent and constitutes "executive over-reach." Eswatini's government states deportees are housed securely and will be repatriated. The arrangement has also raised concerns with neighboring South Africa about potential border crossings.
