ICE raids targeting dozens of undocumented immigrants throughout the country promised by President Trump have begun, said a senior administration official at CNN.

The rally should target 2,000 deported immigrants to New York, Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans and San Francisco.

The mayor of Blasio appeared Sunday during the week on the state of CNN Union. He called the planned raids a "political strategy to keep people divided as far as possible".

The mayor and other municipal officials reminded immigrants in advance of planned raids that they did not have to open the door to the ICE agents or talk to them.

The Daily News reported Saturday that ICE had carried out an unsuccessful raid one day ahead of Sunset Park in Brooklyn.

Massive attacks on ICE were initially planned for June, but Trump postponed them to a later date to see if Congress could develop a plan to deal with the crisis on the southern border of the United States.

New York is a sanctuary city and the New York police have instructed its agents not to help ICE carry out deportation raids. But in a letter Friday, the president of the NYPD sergeants union urged members to "stand side by side" with federal agents to help them "go home safely."
