Immigrants denounce the poor conditions in the camps where they were held. Panama has decided to release dozens of migrants who had been detained for weeks in a remote camp after being deported by the United States.

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.

Authorities said deportees will have the option of extending their stay by 60 days if they need it, but after that many don't know what they will do.

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. It comes after weeks of lawsuits and human rights criticism.

Panama announced Friday that it will allow 112 migrants deported from the United States who have been held in a remote camp in the Darien region since last month to move about the country freely until they decide on their next course of action.
