The first deportation flights carrying migrants from the United States to Guantanamo Baywere "underway" on Tuesday, the White House confirmed, as President Donald Trump's new administration looks to crack down on illegal immigration.
The first flight was reportedly carrying nearly a dozen migrants, a security official told the Reuters news agency, the first of over 5,000 people held by US authorities in Texas and California which the Pentagon says it intends to deport.
