An agency official said that in the first eight months of 2026 nearly 200,000 people were forcibly returned to Haiti, representing a 10% increase compared with the same period last year. "Many arrive without resources, documentation, or support networks," the speaker said, warning that some returnees have urgent protection needs.
The statement emphasized that among returning groups are survivors of sexual violence, pregnant and lactating women, people with disabilities, and unaccompanied and separated children who may need immediate assistance. The official urged donors and member states to support reintegration and protection services for returnees.
