Cambodia Says It Is Not Expelling African Nationals

-

Cambodia's Ministry of Interior, along with its General Department of Immigration, has released official statements clarifying that a viral notice circulating on the internet—which falsely claimed that all African nationals must exit the country by May 31, 2026—is completely fabricated and untrue.

The Viral Notice is Fabricated: Viral posts on social media alleged that Cambodia was terminating immigration waivers specifically for citizens from African countries such as Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and Uganda, with threats of severe fines and imprisonment. Authorities have confirmed that this document was forged to misrepresent facts and mislead public perception.

Cambodian officials have stressed that the nation has never implemented any policy aimed at targeting or mandating the departure of African nationals. The kingdom remains open to all foreign nationals who adhere to its immigration regulations.
The false rumors gained momentum against the backdrop of actual, widely reported law enforcement actions in Cambodia.

The administration of Prime Minister Hun Manet has made it a priority to aggressively combat illegal online scam networks, cyber fraud, and human trafficking operations based in compound facilities.

However, due to these cybercrime raids, thousands of foreign nationals from a variety of global backgrounds—including those found to be overstaying, working without authorization, or lacking valid passports—have been legally deported or expelled in recent months.

These legal enforcement actions are applicable to anyone breaching local laws, irrespective of nationality, and do not constitute an expulsion policy aimed at African individuals.

  White House   press secretary   Karoline Leavitt    on Wednesday has criticized  the media, Democrats, and likely some   Republicans   in the House and Senate for trying to “sow chaos” in the White House with their response to the   Signal   text chain debacle.

Meanwhile, CNN's Collins attempted to ask the press secretary a follow-up question, but was quickly cut off by Leavitt, who called on another reporter in the room.

  President Trump signed an executive order targeting the ticket reselling industry during a signing ceremony from the White House. The new order will allow the Justice Department and Federal Trade Commission to go after the reselling industry, which has used computer bots and algorithms to buy large blocks of tickets and resell them at extremely higher prices.  Musician Kid Rock, who also appeared at the Republican National Convention last July, was present at the signing in the Oval Office.  The president also took several questions from the press, including on the possibility of additional sanctions on Russia, immigration, and tariffs. “I’ve spoken to him over the years about it and it bothers him,” Trump said about Kid Rock during the executive order’s signing. “It bothers a lot of other artists. They go out with a $100 ticket, and it sells for $2,000 the following night.” Trump admitted that he hadn’t known much about price gouging, “but I checked it out, and it is a...
