The US Department of Homeland Security granted a temporary deportation reprieve for more than 100,000 people from Ukraine and Sudan, after Temporary Protected Status (TPS) was set to expire on October 19 for about 101,000 Ukrainians and 1,800 Sudanese (Arab News, October 19, 2026). DHS said a further announcement on TPS status "will be made at the appropriate time," and that until then, affected individuals would not face immediate deportation risk.
This is a notable immigration policy development with direct implications for a large population of Ukrainian and Sudanese nationals in the US, and ties into broader debates over US immigration policy amid the Ukraine war and Sudan's conflict.
