US immigration agents raid Ilhan Omar's home in pre-dawn operation

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents conducted a pre-dawn raid at the home of Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, focusing their investigation on immigration documents prepared by her father during her childhood.

The operation is part of a criminal investigation into Omar's immigration paperwork, with investigators specifically examining documents her father submitted when she was a child.

US officials confirmed the case is linked to an ongoing federal investigation that has previously been discussed publicly. The Department of Justice stated the search was carried out under a legally authorized court warrant.

CNN reported that federal officers executed the search warrant at the congresswoman's residence. Omar has frequently been a target of criticism from the administration of former President Donald Trump.
