Nach tagelangen Protesten hat sich die Lage in Los Angeles vorerst beruhigt, eine für die Innenstadt verhängte nächtliche Ausgangssperre wurde aufgehoben.

Overview

  • Los Angeles lifted a week-long nighttime curfew in parts of downtown after authorities deemed the situation sufficiently calm.
  • Municipal officials reported that more than 30,000 people participated in protests against mass deportations in the city center.
  • President Trump dispatched National Guard troops and Marine infantry to support ICE operations despite Governor Gavin Newsom’s opposition and ensuing legal challenges.
  • Officials described the rallies as largely peaceful and credited the curfew with effectively protecting shops, restaurants and residential areas.
  • Protests have now spread to over 2,000 locations across the U.S., prompting a temporary pause of ICE raids in certain agricultural sectors due to economic pressure from farmers.
