CNN - The Trump administration is halting its plan to house up to 30,000 undocumented migrants in tents at the military base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. A US official said the tents don't meet detention standards because they lack air conditioning or electricity. There also haven't been enough migrants coming to Guantanamo to justify building more tents, officials said. Last week, more than 170 migrants at the naval base were flown to Venezuela, nearly emptying Guantanamo. Since then, 17 migrants have been brought to the detention facility portion of the base — while roughly 1,000 US service members are on site supporting the mission.
