U.S. immigration and military authorities say they have transferred exclusively Venezuelan immigrants who are subject to final deportation orders to the U.S. naval station at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where nearly 180 new arrivals are being held in tents and high-security facilities,

A plane carrying more than 170 Venezuelan migrants who were held in Guantanamo Bay after being deported from the US arrived in Venezuela on Thursday, according to CNN sources.

Venezuela said it will receive a flight of its nationals it says were “unfairly” taken to Guantanamo after being deported from the US.
