TOP STORY: ICE offices around the globe

ICE offices around the globe

As part of ICE's ongoing celebration of their 10 year anniversary, the Office of Public Affairs will release a new Top 10 list every month, for 10 months.

All of ICE's locations are unique, and so is the work that ICE's officers and special agents do every day. ICE's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) helps protect the United States and its interests by conducting multi-faceted, international law enforcement operations and safely repatriating individuals wanted by our foreign law enforcement partners. Through its international and domestic offices, ICE works with its law enforcement partners to combat a wide range of criminal activity and as well as to repatriate criminal aliens to their country of origin. Below are 10 ICE offices from around the globe.

Oahu, Hawaii (HSI and ERO offices)
