White House agrees to keep migrants in Djibouti for now, blasts federal judge's ruling
Briefly

The White House announced a delay in transporting eight immigrants who were scheduled to be deported to South Sudan, now staying in Djibouti for compliance with a federal court's ruling. The federal judge's order allows the migrants, who come from various countries including Myanmar and Cuba, to challenge their deportation.

A White House spokesperson claims the judge's decision jeopardizes U.S. diplomatic relationships and security, emphasizing the contentious debate surrounding deportation procedures and immigration policies.
