Three immigrants who won a restraining order against the U.S. government to avoid transfer to Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba have been deported on direct flights to Venezuela.

The Trump administration has sent three illegal immigrants back to Venezuela after a judge blocked their transfer to the migrant detention center at Guantánamo Bay.

Three immigrants who won a restraining order against the federal government to avoid transfer to the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba were deported this week on direct flights to Venezuela, according to court documents published Friday.

The Trump administration said Thursday it had abruptly deported at least 177 Venezuelan immigrants who had been detained in a newly constructed prison camp at the U.S. naval base at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.

US and Venezuelan officials confirmed that 177 Venezuelans boarded an aircraft from the Venezuelan-owned airline Conviasa bound for Caracas.

Nearly 200 Venezuelan immigrants to the U.S. were returned to their home country after being detained at Guantanamo Bay, in a flurry of flights that forged an unprecedented pathway for U.S. deportations.

Many of the migrants were being kept in a detention facility that has historically held suspected terrorists. They were flown back to Venezuela Thursday after a stop in Honduras.
