Illegal Chinese nationals deported

Illegal Chinese nationals are about to board a chartered flight bound for China early Thursday morning.

More than 300 illegal Chinese nationals, including 21 minors rescued by the Bureau of Immigration, were deported Thursday.

Chinese authorities provided three chartered flights from China Eastern Airlines for the deportees who are among the 512 arrested on 9 October at the Millennium building in Pasay City.

The first flight left 3 a.m. while the next two are scheduled at 8 p.m. and 9 p.m.

For security purposes, all deportees will be brought directly to the aircraft, which will be parked at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1.
