The shipment of all immigrants does not necessarily mean that the operation is completed; Two federal officials declared to Associated Press that S so that the administration can again use installation in the future. For example, Trump promised to send migrants who have been deemed dangerous for the establishment, such as members of criminal organizations like Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan gang, reports CNN.

Jennifer Babaie, director of defense and legal services of LAS Americas Immigrant Advocacy Center, said that last month, Guantánamo is a “reproduction ground for violence, abuses and negligence”.
“Many of these men have already been subject to countless human rights violations and violations of the regular procedure,” she said.
“Keep them in Guantánamo without regular access to lawyers and relatives while repairing the unfounded accusations against them on the basis of what they look like and where they come from, is dangerous, violent and completely unacceptable,” she added.
Before being removed, more than 100 migrants who were considered “mentioned” were detained inside Camp IV. The establishment looks like those used to accommodate prisoners of war, according to declarations under oath of Internal security and the staff of the American army. Other prisoners “with low threat” have been detained “in and around” a “center of migrant operations” similar to a barracks.
