More than a year after President Donald Trump announced plans to transform Guantánamo Bay into a detention hub for up to 30,000 migrants, the operation is holding just six detainees while projected military costs have climbed to at least $73 million, according to internal government documents reviewed by CBS News.
The six detainees held at the U.S. naval base as of May 11 were all Haitian nationals, federal documents showed. Over the past year, 832 immigration detainees have been transferred to Guantánamo on more than 100 flights, though many were later returned to the United States.
