Florida governor Ron DeSantis announces new migrant detention center in Northern Florida

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced on Thursday that a currently abandoned state prison in the northern part of the state will be repurposed as a new detention center for migrants, which he called a “Deportation Depot”, just over a month after the opening of ‘Alligator Alcatraz’.

“We are authorizing and will soon open a new processing and deportation center for illegal immigration here in northern Florida. We will call it the Deportation Depot,” the Republican governor said in a statement to the media from the Baker County Correctional Institute.

This currently abandoned prison, located about 70 kilometers west of Jacksonville, will have a capacity to house over 1,300 migrants. According to DeSantis, it will be ready to receive inmates “soon.”

“It will be operational soon; it won’t take forever, but we’re not rushing to do it today either,” he added.

This will be the second new migrant-specific detention center in Florida after ‘Alligator Alcatraz’, located in the southern part of the state and inaugurated in early July at an event attended by U.S. President Donald Trump.

‘Alligator Alcatraz’ has a capacity for 3,000 migrants, and DeSantis had warned that as soon as it approached that limit, a new detention center would be opened.

“We’ve reached the point where I’m confident we need additional capacity,” the governor said, without specifying whether the first facility had already reached its maximum capacity.

Colombian coffee production hits 14.8 million bags, best in over three decades

Colombia closed the 2024/25 coffee season with a production of 14.8 million 60-kilogram bags, marking a 17% increase compared to the previous cycle and the highest output in 33 years, the National Federation of Coffee Growers (FNC) announced on Tuesday.

According to FNC data, Colombia produced 14,869,000 bags between September 2024 and August 2025, up from 12.7 million bags in the previous harvest.

FNC manager Germán Bahamón highlighted that this performance “reaffirms the reliability of Colombian coffee origin in the global market” and reflects “the disciplined work of producers, the impact of responsible crop renewal, professional technical assistance, and the favorable weather conditions that supported the production process.”

Looking ahead to the 2025/26 cycle, the FNC warned of a possible drop in output due to the physiological response of coffee plants and the heavy rains expected in the coming semester.

“Each season brings new challenges and opportunities. We will work with determination to ensure that farmer profitability remains the foundation of sustainability and the future of the entire coffee chain,” Bahamón wrote on X.

Authorities investigate triple homicide of young women in southern Buenos Aires

The bodies of three women, two aged 20 and one 15, were found on the outskirts of Buenos Aires in a case authorities are investigating as a revenge killing linked to drug trafficking, the provincial Security Minister reported on Wednesday.

“Apparently, they were going to attend an event they had been invited to, unaware that it was a trap organized by a transnational drug trafficking group planning to kill them,” said Javier Alonso, Buenos Aires provincial Security Minister, during a press conference.

So far, four people have been arrested for aggravated homicide, including the owner of the house where the bodies were discovered, though Alonso suggested that more individuals may be involved.

Investigators determined that the victims voluntarily got into a vehicle on Friday night and were taken to a house in Florencio Varela, on the southern outskirts of Buenos Aires. The vehicle was later found burned near the property where the bodies were discovered in the garden.

While the exact motive is still under investigation, the minister explained that the women had previously encountered members of the criminal organization, and an incident involving them led to this act of revenge. Alonso estimated that the killings occurred the same night the women disappeared, and phone tracking helped reconstruct their movements.
