Reports of immigration officers apprehending people in the US illegally circulated on social media on Saturday as Donald Trump confirmed raids would begin the following day.

POTUS said that agents from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), would conduct a series of raids on Sunday to deport immigrants with outstanding orders to leave the country. 

Trump said the raids would primarily target those with a criminal record, but immigration advocates say the agency is increasingly targeting families who have recently entered the country.
