Attorneys said last week that children were being held without proper food, water or sanitation at the facility in Clint, Texas.

Some of the children in the facility were reportedly sickened with the flu, with some being held in medical quarantine, while others, including a 2-year-old boy, were reportedly only cared for by other children.

Customs and Border Protection, which operates the facility, did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the Clint facility.
