The Trump administration plans to deport undocumented migrants to Libya, a country with a poor human rights record and ongoing conflict, despite criticism from human rights groups. A U.S. official confirmed the plan, which involves using military transport and may also include other African nations. While the first deportation flight hasn't yet taken place, this follows similar agreements with countries including El Salvador and Colombia for deportations. The plan has drawn concern due to Libya's instability and history of mistreating migrants.
