US Judge Temporarily Blocks Deportation of Detained Afghans to Afghanistan
A federal judge in New York temporarily blocked the Trump administration's plan to deport detained Afghans to Afghanistan or Pakistan, citing concerns from advocates and lawmakers about risks of persecution or death. The order, issued by Judge Valerie Caproni, expires Saturday, with no deportations planned before then. Immigrant rights groups warned of potential Taliban retaliation. The government stated there are currently no scheduled flights for deportations, which are typically arranged weeks in advance.
