The court of the Metropolitan District of Columbia decided to stop mass deportations of migrants from the United States on the basis of the Enemy Aliens Act of 1798 and to deploy all flights with deportees on board. This was reported by the newspaper Politico.

According to her, Judge James Boasberg ordered the suspension of the expulsion of migrants until the court determines the legal validity of the application by American President Donald Trump of the 18th century law, which in the history of the United States was used only three times and is designed to quickly expel foreigners from the country during the war. A temporary ban on the expulsion of migrants will be in effect for 14 days.

"Any plane with these people on board that is about to take off or is already in the air should be immediately returned to The United States by any means. Make sure that this will be done immediately," the publication quotes the judge as saying.

According to him, at the time of the court's decision, at least two planes with migrants departing from Texas were already approaching their destinations in El Salvador and Honduras, TASS quotes excerpts.

Earlier, Trump signed a proclamation based on the Foreign Enemies Act of 1798, which prescribes the immediate detention, detention and expulsion from the United States of members of the Venezuela transnational criminal group Tren de Aragua.
