The United States Coast Guard (USCG) repatriated a total of 305 Haitian migrants to the Bahamas and Haiti on Sunday and Monday, following several interceptions at sea of ​​illegal migration attempts.

As part of Operation Vigilant Sentry, the Coast Guard intercepted a group near Anguilla Cay in the Bahamas and two others near Cap-Haïtien and Île de la Tortue in Haiti, according to the USCG.
