The mass deportations come amid rising tensions between Algeria and its southern neighbours, all now led by military juntas that ousted elected governments previously aligned with Algiers.

Authorities in Algeria have rounded up more than 1,800 migrants and left them at the border with Niger in a record expulsion earlier this month, a migrant rights group has said. Alarmphone Sahara, which monitors migration across the region, said the migrants were bussed to a remote desert area known as "Point Zero" after being apprehended in Algerian cities.

Abdou Aziz Chehou, the group’s national coordinator, said that 1,845 migrants without legal status in Algeria had been counted, arriving in Niger's border town of Assamaka after the mass expulsion on 19 April.

That pushed the total number of expelled migrants arriving in Assamaka this month beyond 4,000, he said.

How many U.S. Senators are on their way to help out and demand they be shipped back to Algiers?

Sounds like a good opportunity for U.S. Senators, staff and family to take a nice European vacation after spending an afternoon in Algiers complaining about “Algerian Man” and lack of due process.

Were they better off under the French? I’ll bet you the folks going to Niger think so.
