U.S. sends 68 migrants back to Honduras and Colombia in first voluntary deportation
Briefly

The U.S. government has initiated its first charter flight for voluntary deportations, sending back migrants from Honduras and Colombia. The Trump administration has framed this as a more humane approach, providing those who opt for voluntary return with $1,000 debit cards. Despite this initiative, analysts suggest only a small number of migrants will choose to return, as many are rooted in their new lives in the U.S. U.S. Homeland Security encouraged migrants to utilize the CBP Home App, highlighting the administration's emphasis on legal processes for those who self-deport.
"If you are here illegally, use the CBP Home App to take control of your departure and receive financial support to return home."
