Washington/IBNS: The Donald Trump administration has arrested 500 illegal immigrants and deported hundreds using military aircraft days after the US president promised a crackdown on the illegal immigrants, media reports said.

Along with the information, The White House has shared the names of the people who have been arrested.

The White House posted on X, "538 Total Arrests. 373 Detainers Lodged."

The White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News, "President Trump is using every lever of his executive power to secure our nation's borders...

"He is sending a very clear message to the rest of the world, if you are even thinking for a single second about illegally entering our country and breaking the laws of the United States of America you will face consequences for doing so!"

Trump, who returned to power with a massive mandate in November 5 last year elections, said he will take steps to secure the US borders.

He said in his inaugural address as the president, "All illegal entry will immediately be halted, and we will begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal aliens back to the places from which they came."
