The effort, which is beginning this week, [supposedly] focuses largely on #Somalis with final #deportation orders who are living in the #TwinCities, though the ofcl said that others who are still seeking legal status could be swept up as well.

The plan calls for the deployment of so-called strike teams, which are made up of #ICE officers, agents & other federal ofcls. ~100 officers & agents from around the country have been brought in for the operation, the ofcl said.
