The implicated individuals' identities are currently undisclosed.

The United States is set to deport several permanent residents following findings that they aided and collaborated with Haitian gang leaders aligned with a recognized terrorist group. This announcement was made by Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Monday.

Rubio clarified that the U.S. would not permit individuals to retain the advantages of legal status if they support or facilitate the actions of violent or criminal terrorist organizations. This decision reinforces the nation's stance against allowing criminal conduct under the guise of legal residency.

Though the statement did not disclose names, those involved are accused of supporting Haitian gangs associated with Viv Ansanm. The decision to deport highlights the ongoing U.S. efforts to combat terrorism and organized crime, particularly in relation to foreign entities.
