Panama has released dozens of migrants deported from the United States who were held for weeks in a remote camp on the condition that they would leave the Central American nation in 30 days.

The deportees, largely from Asian countries, were part of a deal struck between the Trump administration and Panama and Costa Rica last month as the U.S. government attempts to speed up deportations.

After weeks of lawsuits and human rights criticism, Panama on Saturday released dozens of migrants who were held for weeks in a remote camp after being deported from the United States, telling them they have 30 days to leave the Central American nation.
