In other news, the bodies of 24 Haitian migrants have been found in the Dominican Republic in the last two days. The victims apparently died of suffocation while crossing the Haiti-Dominican border in a sealed truck. Immigration has been the source of considerable tension between the two countries for many years. Last May, the Dominican government deported over 2,000 Haitians following the slaying of a Dominican woman.
