Illegal immigrants are stocking up on groceries and making plans to stay in their homes with their blinds down and lights off as agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid 10 US cities.
New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said there were three ICE operations in his city on Saturday, with no reported arrests. He said there was no ICE activity in New York on Sunday.
The Miami-based Florida Immigrant Coalition said immigrants were sheltering at home after ICE agents were seen near the city's international airport. No arrests were reported.
'They've been stocking up on groceries and making plans to stay in their homes with the lights off and the blinds down,' the group posted on Facebook. 'Some are staying home from work.'
The operations came as the Trump administration faces criticism for housing immigrants in overcrowded, unsanitary conditions and there are concerns about migrant children being separated from adults by US authorities.
