IIRC it wasn't government just ferrying off a bunch of immigrants to the middle of nowhere and said "you live here now" but instead sent some asylum seekers there for the duration of the process to confirm (or deny) their asylum. And asylum seekers at least where I live, for the duration of the processing of their status, live in special facilities. This happened to be in a place they didn't like, which imo makes their attitude seem a lot less understandable.
