The U.S. Coast Guard repatriated a total of 109 migrants to Haiti on Monday following multiple interceptions of illegal migration attempts.
"The Coast Guard urges any potential migrants considering the journey: don’t take to the sea and risk your life just to be sent back.
"Use the safe, orderly and lawful pathways available like the CHNV process," said Lt. Nick Fujimoto, Coast Guard District Seven enforcement officer.
As part of Operation Vigilant Sentry, the Coast Guard cutters intercepted a group near Anguilla Cay in the Bahamas and another near Cap-Haitien and Île de la Tortue (Haiti), according to the USCG.
