ICE Arrested 10,000 People in Five Days in Late-June Surge

ICE arrested roughly 10,000 people nationwide in a five-day span ending June 30 — about 2,000 arrests per day, a sharp escalation in the administration’s mass-deportation drive, according to data provided to UC Berkeley’s Deportation Data Project and analyzed by the Associated Press. The surge came after the agency shifted from high-profile sweeps in major cities to quieter enforcement tactics, and as the number of people booked into ICE detention climbed to roughly 39,000 in June, up from about 30,000 per month since February.
