14 分钟Good morning. It's Monday, September 8th.
I'm Shomita Basu.
This is Apple News Today.
On today's show, what another weak jobs report says about the overall economy,
the patchwork group taking on Trump in court and succeeding,
and the winners from this year's US Open.
But first, the latest on the arrest of hundreds of people at a Hyundai plant in Georgia.
The administration is describing it as the largest onsite workplace operation ever conducted by ICE,
but it's quickly become a tense diplomatic issue between the US and one of its closest allies, South Korea.
We need construction to cease immediately.
We need all work to end on the site right now.
Footage obtained by CNN showed officials storming the facility under construction in Georgia on Thursday,
where they arrested 475 people, leading detainees away, shackled together.
Here's Homeland Security Special Agent Steven Schrank describing the operation at a press conference.
This has been a multi-month criminal investigation where we have developed evidence, conducted interviews, gathered documents,
and presented that evidence to the court.
Homeland Security claims the workers detained there were in the US illegally or working at the site illegally.
An official acknowledged that some US citizens and lawful permanent residents were initially detained, but were eventually released.
Most of those arrested were South Korean nationals,
which led the South Korean Foreign Ministry to express concern and regret at the news, a rare public criticism of US policy.
