The servicemen of the National Guard of California arrived at Los Angeles at a local time today in response to yesterday's protest against the actions of the Federal Immigration Service, NBC News reports.
According to the US northern command, they make up the 79th infantry brigade's fighting group. The servicemen will maintain federal buildings and other federal facilities.
According to US Secretary of Internal Affairs, Christie Noah said, the troops of the National Guard for protests are trained to work with the crowd of people.
"Today, 2000 servicemen of the National Guard involved have been trained to work with the crowd. They will be with the public and will be able to ensure the security of both the participants of the buildings and the peacekeepers of both the employees of our law enforcement agencies so that the latter can continue their daily work, "Nahem said.
It should be reminded that the decree on the deployment of 2000 national guards signed US President Donald Trump against the background of protests and riots due to mass arrests of migrants.
