A series of operations against illegal immigrants is ongoing in the US, with the goal of deporting about 100,000 illegal immigrants in the first phase.
According to an international news agency report, a strict crackdown on illegal immigrants was launched just 6 days after US President Donald Trump took office under his strict orders.
Reports indicated that over 2,000 illegal immigrants have been detained and deported across the country so far, while, the US President intends to deport more than 100,000 illegal immigrants as soon as possible.
Currently, there are more than 170,000 illegal immigrants living in the US, most of whom live in Texas and California.

According to the reports, the Republican-majority state of Texas is home to a large number of illegal immigrants from Mexico and other Spanish-speaking countries, where the governor has built several acres of detention centers to temporarily hold illegal immigrants until they are deported.
There has been a lot of panic in the immigrant community in Texas, with a temporary teacher in the city of Fort Worth inviting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to raid his school.
In a post on social media platform X, the teacher wrote that many of my students cannot even speak English and are in 10th and 11th grade. They have to use an iPhone translator to communicate.
