ICE raids paused on restaurants, hotels and farms
"Border Czar" Tom Homan is pausing Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids on most farms, restaurants and hotels while focusing on violent criminals after President Donald Trump announced a pause in ICE raids on such establishments on Friday. File Photo by Aaron Schwartz/UPI | License Photo June 14 (UPI) -- The Trump administration has paused Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids on most farms, hotels and restaurants amid complaints from such employers. The pause in ICE enforcement in the agricultural, hospitality and restaurant industries is to prevent disrupting the respective businesses, CBS News and The New York Times reported. Such businesses rely heavily on immigrant workforces, including many who have unlawfully entered the United States. "Our great farmers and people in the hotel and Leisure business have been stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking very good, long-time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace," Trump said on Thursday in a Truth Social post. "In many cases the criminals allowed into our country by the VERY stupid Biden Open Borders Policy are applying for those jobs," Trump said. "This is not good," he added. "We must protect our Farmers, but get the CRIMINALS OUT OF THE USA." The Trump administration has a goal of removing 3,000 people every day who do not have legal approval to be in the United States. ICE raids that target restaurants, agricultural operations and hotels are causing concern among Republican lawmakers in swing districts, NPR reported. Such lawmakers prefer that ICE focus on detaining and deporting those who have engaged in violence, vandalism and other criminal acts. "I remain concerned about ongoing ICE operations throughout [California] and will continue by conversations with the administration - urging them to prioritize the removal of known criminals over the hardworking people who have lived peacefully in the valley for years," Rep. David Valadao said Tuesday in a post onX. Valadao represents California's 22nd House District, which includes part of the San Joaquin Valley and is the son of immigrant farmers from Portugal.

Ukraine repatriates 1,200 civilian, military remains

Photo by Stringer/EPA-EFE June 14 (UPI) -- Russia and Ukraine exchanged an unreported number of prisoners of war on Saturday during the fourth such exchange during the week. Ukraine also received the bodies of 1,200 dead civilians and military personnel from Russia. The bodies are in addition to 2,412 that were sent to Ukraine on Wednesday and Friday and are being released per agreements reached during recent negotiations in Istanbul, the Kyiv Independent reported. "The remains will now undergo forensic examination and identification procedures conducted by law enforcement investigators in cooperation with expert institutions under the [Ukrainian] Interior Ministry," officials for the Coordination Headquarters Prisoners of War said in a prepared statement. Identifying the bodies enables respective Ukrainian families to recover them for burial. Ukrainian and Russian officials agreed to exchange the bodies of 6,000 soldiers and civilians for each side for a total exchange of 12,000 bodies. Although the two nations agreed to exchange bodies, Russian officials said Ukraine did not return 1,200 bodies during Saturday's exchange. Russia and Ukraine are also exchanging prisoners of war who need medical care. Ukraine has transferred wounded Russian soldiers who have been captured, including many who were transferred directly from the frontlines. As cease-fire negotiations continue to end the war that began when Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, Russia has continued to strike Ukraine with drone attacks. Russia is on pace to strike Ukraine with nearly 7,000 drones, which would exceed the record number of 4,198 drones launched against Ukrainian military and civilian targets in March. "This is terrorism against the civilian population aimed to create a series of doom, war-weariness and to put pressure on the [Ukrainian] authorities," Liveuamap co-founder Rodion Rozhkovskiy told the Kyiv Independent. While the war in Ukraine and related negotiations continue in Istanbul, Russian President Vladimir Putin called President Donald Trump on Saturday to wish him a happy birthday and discuss matters in Iran during the one-hour call. "We talked at length," Trump said in a White House statement issued after the phone call ended. "Much less time was spent talking about Russia/Ukraine, but that will be for next week," Trump said. He said Putin knows Iran "very well" and agreed the war between Israel and Iran should end. Trump said he told Putin, "his war should also end" in Ukraine. The president did not offer more details on his conversation with Putin. Russian forces on Friday captured the Ukrainian village of Yablunivka, which is located in northeastern Ukraine and about 5 miles from the border between the two nations, Russian officials announced on Saturday. Russian forces also reportedly captured the villages of Koptevo and Komar in the eastern Donetsk region in Ukraine and six in total over the past week.
