Pentagon says military planes used to deport migrants


Seven times American military transport planes C-17 were used by Washington to repatriate illegal migrants to their countries of origin. This was reported to "Izvestia" in the press service of the Pentagon.
"According to information received from a defense official, since January 23, C-17 planes have made seven deportation flights," the office said.
One hour of operation of such aircraft costs more than $19 thousand, so deportation flights using C-17s cost the states many times more than tickets for the same routes in first class on commercial airlines.
