National Guard Deployed Amidst Violent Immigration Protests in Los Angeles

Los Angeles braces for another day of unrest as the National Guard is deployed to quell violent protests against immigration raids. President Trump has authorized the deployment of 2000 guardsmen, and US Defence Secretary Pete Hegsheth warned that US Marines could also be mobilized. The protests, which began on Friday, have seen clashes between protesters and authorities, with reports of tear gas being used. One eyewitness stated, "It was chaos. People were throwing things, and the police were responding with force." The situation highlights the deep divisions within the US over immigration policy and the potential for further escalation. The deployment of the National Guard aims to prevent further violence and maintain order. However, the ongoing tension suggests that the situation is far from resolved.
