Australian Activists Protest New Nauru Deportation Laws Amidst Multi-Billion Dollar Deal
Anti-racist activists across Australia have protested new immigration laws passed on September 4, 2025, which facilitate the deportation of non-citizens, particularly the 'NZYQ cohort,' to Nauru. The laws follow a 30-year, A$2.5 billion deal with Nauru for offshore processing, drawing widespread criticism from human rights groups.
