Senior Trump officials are currently in the process of expanding holding capacity for migrants at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. This initiative, which is expected to take several weeks, is aimed at accommodating a larger number of migrants, although it may fall short of President Donald Trump's target of 30,000 individuals.
Guantanamo Bay already houses a separate migrant processing center that was previously utilized to temporarily shelter migrants apprehended at sea. Under the Biden administration, Homeland Security officials have evaluated this center as a potential location to temporarily house migrants in the event of a mass maritime migration.
