US Officers & Convicted Migrants Stranded in Djibouti Cargo Container — Amid Illness & Rocket Threats
Nearly a dozen US immigration officers and eight convicted migrants are sick and trapped in a makeshift isolation unit at a US military base in Djibouti, US media reported.
The migrants were set for deportation to South Sudan, but on May 21, federal judge Brian Murphy found that the Trump administration violated a court order by denying them the chance to appeal.
Rather than returning to the US, they were sent to a military base in Djibouti, where the court required they be given at least 15 days to file objections and be provided access to lawyers and interpreters.
US Department of Homeland Security has slammed court for endangering officers.
