Military Deployed to Los Angeles Amidst Civil Unrest Following ICE Raids

Los Angeles witnesses a significant military deployment amid escalating civil unrest. The deployment of troops in Los Angeles follows days of intense protests sparked by recent ICE raids. The exact number of those detained remains unclear, but reports suggest hundreds have been taken into custody. Governor Gavin Newsom has condemned the federal intervention, calling it an 'illegal overreach' and vowing legal action against the Trump administration. President Trump, in response, has suggested the arrest of Governor Newsom, escalating the already tense situation. The presence of military vehicles and personnel on the streets of Los Angeles underscores the severity of the situation and raises concerns about potential escalation. One eyewitness, commenting on the situation, stated, "It felt like a war zone; the streets were filled with military vehicles and armed personnel." While the situation remains tense, officials are urging calm and dialogue to de-escalate the crisis.
