LEAKED MANIFESTS: ICE Moved 44,000 On 1,700 Charter Flights In 100 Days — GlobalX Shuffle Hid Routes, Split Families

Guardian investigation of leaked GlobalX manifests and detention data finds ICE ran 1,700 charter flights in ~100 days, moving 44,000 detainees — including nearly 1,000 children — through multi-leg domestic routes and some third-country expulsions. Repeated transfers hindered access to counsel and separated families, with evidence of tail-number masking and call-sign changes obscuring tracking. Reporting indicates increased use of private contractors and possible jurisdiction shopping to limit legal challenges.
