The travel ban goes into effect Monday, leaving many to fear a future in which they can't visit family or loved ones are unable to escape dire circumstances in their home countries.

A sweeping new travel ban on citizens from a dozen nations was announced by the White House on Wednesday, reviving a defining effort from the first Trump administration to crack down on entries from specific countries.

In response to Trump's travel ban, Chad's President Mahamat Déby says he has instructed his government to stop issuing visas to US citizens. As a reminder, Chad is one of the 12 countries that will see a total ban on travel from 9 June.
