ICE Reveals HELLISH Conditions For Agents Stuck in Djibouti After Biden Judge Orders Plane Carrying Illegals to South Sudan Grounded
Last month US District Judge Brian Murphy said the Trump Administration violated his court order to provide the aliens with “meaningful” due process since they were being sent to “third-party” countries.
Some of the aliens are from Laos, Vietnam, and Cuba, so sending them to South Sudan puts them in danger, attorneys argued.
Judge Murphy said the US must maintain custody of the dangerous aliens during the process.
“During that 15-day period, the individual must remain within the custody or control of DHS, and must be afforded access to counsel that is commensurate with the access they would be afforded if they were seeking to move to reopen from within the United States’ borders,” the judge wrote.
Judge Murphy also ordered the US government to provide interpreters and counsel to the aliens during the interview.
President Trump fumed and said that because of the judge’s order, 8 of the most violent criminals on earth are currently being held in Djibouti, a tiny country on the Horn of Africa next to Ethiopia.
The US government doesn’t even have a detention facility in Djibouti, so 11 ICE agents are detaining the aliens in a conference room in a converted Conex shipping container on the US Naval base in Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti.
The judge’s order is putting ICE agents in danger.
On Wednesday, a court filing revealed the hellish conditions for the ICE agents forced to live in thanks to the Biden judge.
ICE agents who are living in 100-degree heat are at risk of Malaria and rocket attacks. There are also limited sleeping quarters, limited lighting, and significant security risks.
“The aliens are currently being held in a conference room in a converted Conex shipping container on the U.S. Naval base in Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti. This has been identified as the only viable place to house the aliens,” ICE said in a court filing.
“ICE personnel had to interrupt the flight and disembark in Djibouti without being on anti-malaria medication for at least 48-72 hours prior to arrival, as recommended by medical professionals. They were not able to start taking antimalarials until after arrival in Djibouti. There continues to be an unknown degree of exposure despite taking the antimalarial as full efficacy of the medication is unknown currently,” ICE said.
ICE Agents are experiencing throat irritation because of burn pits.
“Djibouti utilizes burn pits as a way disposing of trash and human waste. The burn pits are located within five miles outside the base and turned on at night. These pits create a smog cloud in the vicinity of Camp Lemonnier, making it difficult to breathe and requiring medical treatment for the officers, who have experienced throat irritation. Some officers have taken extra precaution by sleeping with N-95 masks. The burn pits are most active on Thursdays and Fridays creating the thickest smoke. Due to the temperature in Djibouti being over 100 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and in the 90s at night with usually no breeze, the smoke from the burn pits lingers,” the court filing said.
The agents are also at risk of rocket attacks from terrorists, yet they lack the proper body armor.
“Upon arrival in Djibouti, officers were warned by U.S. Department of Defense officials of imminent danger of rocket attacks from terrorist groups in Yemen. The ICE officers lack body armor or other gear that would be appropriate in the case of an attack,” ICE said.
