In photos: Trump deploys National Guard to LA as ICE raid protests flare for 3rd day

Tensions flared in Los Angeles on Sunday as 2,000 National Guard troops were deployed to the city to quell protests against federal immigration raids, which have been ongoing for three days in California. California's Democratic leaders criticized the move, saying it would only worsen the already tense situation. President Trump stated that he would "send whatever we need to make sure there's law and order." The protests have seen authorities deploy tear gas, and demonstrators have responded with fireworks and looting. The clashes have resulted in injuries, with protesters using milk to wash away tear gas. The protests began in response to federal immigration operations, which have sparked outrage among immigration rights supporters. The situation remains volatile, with law enforcement and National Guard troops clashing with protesters. The deployment of National Guard troops has been met with criticism from California's Democratic leaders, who argue that it will only escalate tensions. The protests have been marked by violence, with both sides engaging in confrontations that have resulted in the coming days.
