Newly leaked emails reveal U.S. immigration officials secretly coordinated with Iran to deport over 100 Iranians between September 2025 and January 2026 — even as tensions soared and Iranians fled war with the U.S. and Israel. ICE adjusted deportation lists based on Iranian Embassy requests, sometimes adding names days before flights, while acknowledging many were fleeing persecution. This marks a reversal from decades of U.S. policy welcoming Iranian dissidents, drawing condemnation from human rights groups. The emails also show top Trump administration pressure to prioritize deportations during wartime, contradicting claims the U.S. was protecting Iranians from repression. Additionally, Iranian officials were allowed to meet detainees — despite federal rules barring asylum info sharing — raising alarms about potential violations.
