ICE Arrests Almost 500 People at Hyundai Plant in Georgia

ICE conducted a massive raid at a Hyundai battery factory in Georgia that has the potential to ratchet up tensions between the U.S. and South Korea.

The Atlanta office of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms announced in a social media post on Thursday night that it had conducted a “major immigration enforcement operation” at the battery plant, leading to the arrest of “450 unlawful aliens.”

A Korean media source reported that the total number detained could be as high as 560, about 300 of which are South Korean nationals.
