In the Dominican Republic, a recent crackdown on undocumented migrants has led to the deportation of over 130 Haitian women and children, including pregnant women and new mothers, directly from hospitals. This initiative, part of President Luis Abinader's policies, aims to curb the influx of Haitian migrants seeking safer childbirth conditions due to Haiti's failing healthcare system. Critics, including human rights organizations, label this approach as cruel, racist, and misogynistic, particularly as it targets vulnerable women and compromises their health and safety during pregnancy.
Haitian women and children are facing deportation from Dominican hospitals, a policy critics describe as cruel and misogynistic amid Haiti’s humanitarian crisis.
Targeting hospitals is outrageous; this policy forces women to face harrowing choices between deportation or risking severe pregnancy complications.
