The Trump administration conducted secret communications with Iran regarding deportations during the war, according to court documents unsealed Thursday. Hundreds of emails revealed that the two countries coordinated to return more than 100 Iranians across three deportation operations. The disclosures came to light through the unsealed court filings, which exposed a channel of contact maintained despite the broader hostilities between Washington and Tehran. The arrangement matters because it shows that diplomatic and logistical cooperation continued even while the two sides were publicly at odds. What to watch next is whether further documents reveal the full scope of the coordination and whether the back-channel contacts extend beyond deportation logistics.
