Several children, including a one-year-old child born in the United States, were among the latest batch of Haitians deported from that country on Thursday.
Haitian authorities confirmed that the ICE Air Global X charter flight, carrying 57 Haitians, was the second flight to land at Cap Haitien in a week.
On August 21, the US deported more than 160 people to Haiti for the first time since the Trump administration won a legal battle to end Temporary Protected Status for some 350,000 Haitians.
Deportation flights to Haiti had previously been occurring on average once a month.
The Archbishop of Miami, Thomas Wenski, has urged President Donald Trump to reconsider his decision to deport the Haitians.
He argued that last Sunday's massacre in Kenskoff, overlooking the capital Port-au-Prince, that left at least 47 dead, including 22 inside a church, underscores the security situation in the country.
