The Trump administration is set to deport migrants to Libya for the first time this week, with a U.S. military plane potentially departing as early as Wednesday. This action is part of President Donald Trump's broader immigration crackdown, aiming to deter illegal entries and highlight the consequences of unlawful immigration.

Libya, still recovering from years of civil war, has been criticized by human rights groups for the horrific conditions in its migrant detention centers. Despite these concerns, the U.S. plans to proceed with the deportation, marking a notable change in its immigration policy.
