Algeria, which continues to refuse to accept its citizens expelled by France, has stepped up its re-emigration efforts. On April 19, 1,141 illegal immigrants from 17 different countries were deported to Niger. In total, deportations for the month of April reached 4,000 people, according to published figures.
These expulsions, denounced by several NGOs, are taking a dramatic turn. The migrants were reportedly abandoned in the desert, without access to water or food, exposing them to critical survival conditions. The international community is questioning the humanitarian implications of these practices, while local actors are appealing for help to respond to this urgent crisis.
This situation raises fundamental questions about the responsibility of expelling countries and migration policies as a whole. What are the humane and viable solutions to these forced migrations and their disastrous consequences?
