The Department of Homeland Security said in a statement that the flights will carry families of immigrants from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador who cannot be immediately deported due to public health policies related to COVID-19 and have no legal basis to stay in the country.

“We make it clear that those who do not have the right to remain in the United States will be promptly removed,” the statement said.
