“Iran says 120 of its nationals are being deported from the US, as part of President Donald Trump’s crackdown on immigration. ‘These individuals will return to the country within the next one or two days,’ Iranian foreign ministry official Hossein Noushabadi told Iran’s Tasnim state news agency. He said most of those being flown to Iran, via Qatar, had entered the US illegally [sic] — mainly through Mexico. There has been an increased number of Iranians entering the US in recent years, including many who fear persecution at home. White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson told the BBC: ‘The Trump administration is committed to fulfilling President Trump’s promise to carry out the largest mass deportation operation of illegal [sic] aliens in history, using all the tools at our disposal.'” (09/30/25)
