A deportation flight carrying immigrants from various countries that declined to take back their citizens has landed in the Southern African country of Eswatini, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced on Tuesday.

“A safe third country deportation flight to Eswatini in Southern Africa has landed — This flight took individuals so uniquely barbaric that their home countries refused to take them back,” DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin wrote on X.

“These depraved monsters have been terrorizing American communities,” she continued, adding that they are now “off of American soil.”

This comes after the U.S. Supreme Court last month gave the green light for the Trump administration to resume its deportations of migrants to countries other than their own without offering them the opportunity to show the harms they could face in their home countries, allowing the federal government to further carry out the president’s mass deportation agenda.

The memo said migrants could be sent to countries that have vowed not to persecute or torture them “without the need for further procedures.”

The new ICE policy suggests the administration may move quickly to send migrants to countries around the world.

Human rights advocates have raised concerns over due process and other issues surrounding the president’s immigration policies.

Reuters contributed to this report.
