US deports Iranian and other migrants to Central African Republic under third-country agreement.
The Trump administration has reached a deal with the Central African Republic to accept third-country deportees, including Iranians, Syrians, Afghans, and a Turkish national. A flight carrying approximately 20 people was expected to arrive as early as Friday. Some deportees had previously secured legal protection from US immigration judges blocking their return to their home countries.
