Cubans are waiting in a long line to attend an appointment with ICE in Broward.

Dozens of Cubans were lined up this Tuesday to attend their appointments at the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Miramar, Broward County, reported journalist Javier Díaz.

On his Facebook page, the reporter based in Miami posted images of long lines at that immigration facility—many of them with I-220B documents—risking detention and deportation.

"When you think you are having a bad day, remember this photo: they are migrants, mostly Cubans, who have an appointment with ICE and after passing this fence, they risk being detained and therefore deported," expressed Díaz.

He said that the image was taken in the morning at the ICE office in Miramar. "It was filled with Cubans who were complying with a summons to present themselves before immigration authorities. They came in nervous and with the greatest faith and hope that they would not be arrested," he emphasized.

He lamented that "overnight, the lives of people who do not yet have legal status in the United States can change" and recommended that migrants work on their cases and seek ways to legalize themselves.

In recent weeks, immigration lawyers in Miami have reported that U.S. authorities are detaining and deporting those with an I-220B document (deportation order), primarily young people without criminal records, who must be previously accepted by the Cuban regime.

Last Friday, the U.S. deported to Cuba a group of 54 irregular migrants on a flight that landed at José Martí International Airport.

According to the Ministry of the Interior (MININT), the group was made up of 40 men and 14 women, most of whom had legally left Cuba, but then joined irregular routes to reach the U.S. border.

From that group, the Cuban Mario de León Díaz was released the day before, with migration document I-220B. He had been detained by ICE and was facing the threat of deportation to Cuba.

The family's lawyer, Eduardo Soto, filed a lawsuit requesting an emergency Parole, arguing the delicate situation of the pregnant wife of the young migrant.

León Díaz was facing a deportation order for having an I-220B document and not having passed the credible fear interview at the United States border.

During what seemed like a routine appointment with ICE last week, he was arrested for having a supervision and deportation order (I-220B). The same has happened to dozens of Cubans who have been returned to the island throughout the year on at least seven deportation flights.
