Hundreds of Iranian nationals detained by ICE amid June 2025 attack on Iran
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detained hundreds of Iranian nationals during the June 2025 attack on Iran, according to US government data obtained by the National Iranian American Council under a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
“ICE conducted a major surge of arrests of Iranians amid the June 2025 war,” with 220 arrests
So ICE arrested 220 Iranians during the June 2025 attacks? That feels like profiling, not security. Were any of them actual threats?
220 arrests amid a war — sounds like a pre-planned crackdown. The FOIA data from NIAC really exposes how far they went targeting a whole nationality.
If these were just people with expired visas or green card holders, that’s a huge overreach. The government should focus on real threats, not rounding up folks based on their passport.
I get needing security during an attack, but detaining hundreds of Iranians who were already here legally? That’s a slippery slope. Glad NIAC got the data out.
