Trump Administration Moves More Migrants to Guantanamo Bay
Briefly

The military recently transported 15 immigration detainees from Texas to Guantanamo Bay. This follows the transfer of 178 Venezuelan detainees earlier. The newcomers are classified as high-threat illegal aliens and have been placed in Camp 6, a prison formerly used for terrorism suspects. The move was made without advance notice to civil liberties lawyers who had requested notification. There remains ambiguity regarding their length of stay, as they await deportation processes to their home countries or safe third countries.
