Equatorial Guinea police pull guns on migrants deported by Trump, witnesses say

A total of 53 people were deported to Equatorial Guinea under the third-country ⁠deportation deal between ​November 2025 and July, according to Third Country Deportation Watch, a tracker managed by Refugees International and Human ​Rights First.

Police in Equatorial Guinea pulled firearms on migrants deported there from the United States, according to three witnesses and video ​footage shared with Reuters, intensifying concerns about the treatment and safety of people sent to the Central African nation under a U.

One member of that group, a Cuban man, approached police officers at the hotel on Saturday morning to request the return of his confiscated mobile phone ​so that he could contact relatives and a ​lawyer, the two witnesses said.
