The United States deported over 170 Venezuelan migrants from Guantanamo Bay Naval Base to Honduras on Thursday, with plans for their subsequent transfer to Venezuela. This deportation marked a significant reduction in the number of migrants at the base.
The deportees were flown to Comayagua in Honduras and are scheduled to be sent to Venezuela on a special flight operated by the state-owned Venezuelan airline Conviasa. This deportation flight is the first from Guantanamo Bay since the Trump administration initiated the transfer of migrants there from the United States.
