Hope Hostel, a former sanctuary for Rwandan orphans of the 1994 genocide, is poised to welcome migrants sent from the United Kingdom. The hostel, located in the vibrant Kagugu neighborhood of Kigali, will serve as a transit center for migrants arriving from the UK. Rwanda has assured readiness to receive migrants, with authorities planning for their arrival for two years. The hostel has a capacity for 100 occupants, and additional accommodations will be provided as necessary.
Rwanda is set to receive migrants from the United Kingdom as part of a controversial plan to deter illegal immigration. The British government has pledged that deportation flights will begin in July, and Rwanda has designated a refurbished hostel in Kigali as a transit center for the migrants. The plan has faced criticism from human rights groups and legal challenges in the UK, but the Rwandan government maintains that it is well-equipped to provide a safe and humane environment for the migrants.
