The Trump administration sent eight migrants held in Djibouti for weeks to South Sudan, where they fear they will face violence, following a flurry of court activity on Friday. A federal judge in Massachusetts denied an emergency request Friday evening from the migrants’ lawyers to block their deportation to the country,

The migrants were the subject of a lawsuit that halted their deportation to South Sudan and diverted them to a U.S. military base in Djibouti.

While the Supreme Court issued rulings demanding the Trump administration respect immigrants’ right to due process and undo Abrego Garcia’s unlawful deportation to El Salvador, the court’s conservative supermajority recently greenlit the president’s efforts to send immigrants to third countries, or countries that are not their own.
