The United States deported 135 migrants of various nationalities, including 65 minors, to Costa Rica on Thursday, according to the Costa Rican government.
The group comprised individuals from Afghanistan, China, Iran, Russia, Armenia, Georgia, Vietnam, Jordan, Kazakhstan, and Ghana.
Costa Rica, along with Panama and Guatemala, has agreed to temporarily receive migrants expelled by the United States until they can be repatriated to their home countries or relocated to other host nations.
Last week, 299 deported migrants arrived in Panama, with approximately 100 transferred to the San Vicente refugee camp in Meteti, located in the jungle province of Darién.
