Story summary

A US federal court on November 3, 2026, temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s plans to deport scores of Afghan immigrants back to Afghanistan or Pakistan, following concerns from advocacy groups and dozens of members of Congress that such deportations could endanger their lives. Judge Valerie Caproni's order expires Saturday, preventing any deportations until then. According to court documents, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) stated there were no planned flights for deportation this week despite reports last week suggesting over 150 Afghans would be sent back via Pakistan. The case includes relatives of Afghans who assisted the US military before the Taliban takeover in Kabul.
