The first US flights carrying detained migrants to America's notorious Guantanamo military base in Cuba were underway Tuesday as President Donald Trump's administration cracks down on illegal migration, the White House said.
Guantanamo is primarily known as a detention center for suspects accused of terrorism-related offenses, but the base also has a history of being used to hold migrants, and Trump last week ordered the preparation of a 30,000-person "migrant facility" there.
