The Trump administration may send about 100 mostly Christian Iranians trying to enter the United States back to the Islamic Republic later this week.
The group of refugees is currently stranded in Vienna, Austria since last January, attempting to enter the country through a 27-year-old law originally meant to help Jewish refugees flee the Soviet Union, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
"The refugees, most of them Armenians and Assyrians, have been waiting in Vienna for a year as U.S. courts have weighed in on the constitutionality of the travel ban, and recently were informed they must go back to Iran, according to [activists]," reported the Beacon.
"It is unclear if the Trump administration is behind the deportation threat or if Austria is becoming impatient with these cases remaining in limbo."

Nina Shea, director of the Hudson Institute's Center for Religious Freedom, told the Beacon that sending the 100 refugees back to Iran "could be a death sentence for these persecuted Christians and other minorities." CP.
