The Trump administration has carried out 10 deportations on military planes. The flights cost more and move fewer, an El Paso Times analysis found.

President Donald Trump's administration is flying detained migrants to Latin American countries, but online claims that an image shows hundreds of people crammed inside one such aircraft are false. The photo dates to 2021 and shows a US Air Force flight evacuating people from Afghanistan after Taliban insurgents retook power.

Military planes are being used for deportations to expedite the process quickly and efficiently, with little concern for costs, as part of Donald Trump's national emergency on illegal immigration.

U.S. officials say the first military aircraft carrying detained migrants to Guantanamo Bay is expected to depart on Tuesday.
