A large-scale immigration raid at Hyundai's Georgia electric vehicle plant resulted in the detention of approximately 475 people, mostly South Koreans. Homeland Security Investigations stated the operation, the largest in their history, targeted alleged unlawful employment practices. The raid, part of an ongoing investigation, involved a search warrant at the battery plant construction site. South Korea's foreign ministry is actively working to address the situation, while Hyundai and LG are cooperating with authorities. The EV plant's operations remained unaffected.
