New Orleans faces fear as immigration operation targets undocumented immigrants, sparking community concern and calls for accountability.


U.S. immigration officials have launched a new enforcement operation in New Orleans targeting undocumented immigrants, with a particular focus on individuals released from local custody under sanctuary-style policies. The move has sparked a wave of concern across the community.

Residents say the tactics used by federal agents are creating fear among families, including those without criminal records. One restaurant owner has even created makeshift sleeping spaces to keep loved ones out of sight as the operation intensifies.

Local leaders, including council member Lesli Harris, are calling for clarity and accountability as the operation continues through the end of the year. The full scope of the federal action remains uncertain.
