And the Olympics have not yet officially begun. Hundreds of demonstrators gathered in Milan's Piazza XXV Aprile, named for the day Italy was liberated from Nazi fascism in 1945, to protest against the planned deployment of ICE agents during the Games. The ICE agents to be deployed to Milan are not from the same unit as the immigration agents cracking down in Minneapolis and other US cities.

(The U.S. Department of Homeland Security) is committed to working with our local and federal partners to ensure the Super Bowl is safe for everyone involved, as we do with every major sporting event, including the World Cup," Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin told San José Spotlight in a statement. "We will not disclose future operations or discuss personnel. Those who are here legally and are not breaking other laws have nothing to fear.

MILAN -- U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents will have a security role during the upcoming Milan Cortina Winter Games, according to information shared with local media by sources at the U.S. Embassy in Rome. The Associated Press independently confirmed the information with two sources at the embassy. The sources who confirmed ICE participation Tuesday said that federal ICE agents would support diplomatic security details and would not run any immigration enforcement operations.
