-LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, US - JUNE 10, 2025: Demonstrations against the detention of undocumented migrants by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) continue on Tuesday, June 10, in Los Angeles, US. Protesters marched through the city, chanting slogans and waving flags in solidarity with detainees. Police and National Guard units were deployed to maintain security during the protests. Protests erupted Friday after Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents raided local businesses and detained hundreds of people suspected of living in the US illegally. The Trump administration has continued to carry out the raids in defiance of the community's opposition. Critics of the raids say ICE is going after law-abiding undocumented immigrants, a vital part of the community and the local economy, rather than the criminals that Trump pledged to deport while campaigning last year to return to the White House. Trump has deployed roughly 4,000 US National Guardsmen and 700 Marines to the streets of Los Angeles in defiance of warnings from Newsom and Bass that the action would only serve to further inflame already-heightened tensions. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass declared an overnight curfew in the heart of the city Tuesday evening in a bid to prevent another night of clashes between protesters opposed to US President Donald Trump's ongoing immigration raids and security forces. The curfew will run through 6 am local time Wednesday and will last "for several days," Bass said at a separate press conference. It will only be in effect within a roughly one square mile (kilometer) area in downtown that includes the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building and City Hall.
