(260124) -- MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 24, 2026 (Xinhua) -- People attend a protest in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the United States on Jan. 23, 2026. Protesters took to the streets on Friday, blocking airport roads, shutting down hundreds of businesses and staging what organizers described as one of the largest demonstrations in Minnesota's history to demand the removal of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

The protests come after a fatal shooting that ignited the city. On Jan. 7, ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed local resident Renee Good, a 37-year-old mother and U.S. citizen, during an immigration enforcement operation. (Xinhua)
