Getty Images/Spencer Platt The Deparment of Homeland Security said late Saturday it reunited 522 immigrant children who were separated from their families under the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" policy. The reunions come just days after President Donald Trump signed an executive order to halt the separations and instead detain immigrant families together. An additional 2,053 children are Health and Human Services custody, which said it's working to reunite the children with their families "via well-established reunification processes." The government has reunited 522 immigrant children who were recently separated from their parents under the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" policy, the Homeland Security department said late Saturday. An additional 16 children will be reunited with their families within 24 hours, and were delayed due to "weather affecting travel," the Customs and Border Protection agency said.See the rest of the story at Business InsiderNOW WATCH: This top economist has a radical plan to change the way Americans voteSee Also:'They cannot find the children at all': Migrant parents face chaos and red tape trying to reunite with their kidsThe feds are moving ahead with private-land seizures to make room for Trump's border wallMelania Trump flew to Texas to visit immigrant children wearing a jacket that says 'I really don't care, do u?'SEE ALSO: 'They cannot find the children at all': Migrant parents face chaos and red tape trying to reunite with their kids DON'T MISS: Confusion erupts after Trump signals more reversals on his controversial border policies
