Trump confirms the attempted deportation of migrants in the South Sudan

President Trump confirmed on Thursday that a group of migrants from countries, including Vietnam, Cuba and Mexico, were on their way to deporting to South Sudan in the East African nation.

The revelation that the president made in a social media post came when the legal fate of the eight men remained uncertain and the exact location was unknown. A lawyer said for some of the migrants that she was concerned about her well -being.

In a sharp fusion of the government on Wednesday, a federal judge in Boston found the day before that the men from Texas had injured the day before, which he had issued last month in which the immigrants received a reasonable termination before he was deported to a country's own.

The lawyers of some migrants who had hurried to the Federal District Court in Boston to question their deportations told them that they had been informed that they were led to South Sudan, a country that fluctuates on the sidelines of the civil war.

The Trump government officials refused to confirm in front of an open dish where the men were sent, and described the information at one point as “classified” and later as “sensitive”. On Wednesday morning, Tricia McLaughhlin, a spokeswoman for the Department of Homeland Security, also refused to inform the reporters the location of the aircraft or where it came from, citing “operational security”.

In the middle of the legal wrangling, the flight with the migrants in Dschibuti landed, as the New York Times previously reported. It remained unclear where they were held and under what conditions.
