Deportees are being held in a converted shipping container in Djibouti, ICE says

Camp Lemonnier uses stacks and rows of "Containerized Living Units," or CLUs, which the military likens to shipping containers, to house thousands of personnel at the U.S. base in Djibouti. A group of migrants is being held in a converted shipping container, according to court filings.

Deported migrants have been stuck at a military base in Djibouti for over two weeks — and ICE officers are also there, guarding them 24 hours a day.
