Los Angeles Curfew Extended Amid Immigration Raid Protests
Los Angeles is under curfew for a second night following widespread protests sparked by immigration raids.
Key Developments
Nearly 400 arrests have been made, including undocumented migrants and individuals charged with assault and obstruction. Tensions escalated after President Trump deployed National Guard troops, a move condemned by California Governor Newsom as an assault on democracy.
Mayor Karen Bass has accused the federal government of overreach, stating the immigration raids "provoked" fear. The unrest has spread to other cities, including New York and Atlanta, raising concerns about federal-state relations and the handling of immigration policy.
Some National Guard troops are now authorised to detain people until police can arrest them.
