[A U.S. flight to repatriate Iranian citizens was temporarily canceled] On November 8, local time, according to U.S. sources, a U.S. flight planned to repatriate Iranian citizens was suddenly canceled that morning. The reason is still unclear. At least eight Iranian citizens boarded a repatriation flight to Iran via Georgia and Pakistan in Arizona that morning, but the flight was subsequently cancelled. According to sources, previously released court documents show that despite the ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran, the Trump administration still plans to repatriate Iranian citizens through a third country as of mid-October. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security declined to comment on specific deportation operations. Previously, a federal judge had asked the U.S. government to notify the court of relevant repatriation plans in advance. Lawyers representing some of the detainees argued the operation could violate the court's advance notification requirements. (CCTV News)
