U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has launched Operation Midway Blitz in Chicago, leading to the arrest of dozens of individuals accused of violent crimes.

Footage released by the agency shows ICE agents carrying out arrests across the city. According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the operation specifically targeted offenders facing charges such as assault, DUI, and felony stalking.

Officials emphasized that the crackdown is “only beginning” as the Trump administration intensifies efforts to prioritize public safety and remove dangerous offenders from communities.

The large-scale enforcement action comes as part of a broader national strategy to curb violent crime while addressing concerns about undocumented immigrants with serious criminal records.
