The Supreme Court is clearing the way for the deportation of several immigrants who were put on a flight in May bound for South Sudan, a war-ravaged country where they have no ties.

The ruling halts a lower court order that temporarily allowed migrants to challenge their removal to countries outside their homeland.

The Supreme Court on Thursday granted a request by the Trump administration to send eight men who have spent more than a month imprisoned on a U.S. military base in Djibouti to war-ravaged South Sudan. Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented.
