flag Ireland deported 52 migrants, including families and children, to Georgia in a €190,000 charter flight amid immigration enforcement efforts.

flag In November, Irish authorities deported 52 individuals, including families and children, to Georgia via a €190,000 charter flight as part of Operation Trench. flag Nearly 120 gardaí escorted the group, most held for up to eight weeks to ensure removal. flag Only one person had a significant criminal record; others had minor offenses or no record. flag Children traveled with parents and were not detained. flag A human rights monitor, doctor, paramedic, and translator accompanied the flight. flag The government stated deportation is vital for immigration enforcement and public trust, noting voluntary return options exist with support. flag Pending appeals do not stop removals, and no cost-benefit analysis has been conducted despite comparable charter costs to commercial flights.
