President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, confirmed that the administration will continue to use Guantanamo Bay as a holding facility for migrants after the Department of Homeland Security transferred over a hundred Venezuelan detainees out of the facility on Thursday.

The Trump administration has said little about the Venezuelan men who were transferred from Texas to the U.S. military base in Cuba.

The number of troops being sent to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in support of migrant detention operations there continues to swell, with approximately 1,100 service members now deployed to the Navy base.

The administration flew almost all of the migrants it had held in the facility in Cuba to Honduras, and one to detention in the U.S., NBC News has learned.

Nearly 200 Venezuelan immigrants to the U.S. were returned to their home country after being detained at Guantanamo Bay, in a flurry of flights that forged an unprecedented pathway for U.S. deportations.
