Gov. Ron DeSantis said hundreds of immigration detainees had departed a state-run detention center in the Everglades on planes, some for federal facilities, and others out of the country.

The flights operated by the Department of Homeland Security have transferred about 100 detainees from the immigration detention center to other countries, said Gov. Ron DeSantis, who expects that number to increase soon.

Alligator Alcatraz is the migrant detention center near the Florida Everglades. New aerial video shows the "small city in the swamp."
