DOMINICAN REPUBLIC – The Dominican Republic is deporting Haitians and creating a police unit focused on foreigners, fueling tensions between the two neighboring Caribbean nations.

Dominican President Luis Abinader last issuing a decree last week calling for stepped up migration protocols enforcement.
