US President Donald Trump has sent 2,000 National Guardsmen to Los Angeles after violent protests over immigration raids. Clashes broke out between ICE agents and residents in the mostly Latino Paramount area. Tear gas, flash bangs, and arrests followed, with 118 people detained this week. California Governor Gavin Newsom called the raids “cruel” and said Trump’s move would increase tensions. Trump accused state leaders of failing to keep order. Federal officials warned protesters to stop disrupting operations. Some migrants are reportedly hiding in local businesses. The protests began after mass ICE arrests aimed at undocumented migrants sparked public anger and fear. (PC: BBC)
