Six protesters were arrested after clashing with ICE officers outside Delaney Hall, a New Jersey detention center, where detainees are reportedly staging a hunger strike over poor living conditions. Families and advocates allege detainees were subjected to pepper spray and physical force, while the facility's operator denied claims of mistreatment and blamed 'politically motivated campaigns' against immigration enforcement.

Democratic members of Congress observed poor conditions at Delaney Hall detention center, including small food portions containing maggots and inadequate medical care for detainees. Protests and hunger strikes have occurred, with lawmakers and advocates condemning the treatment as inhumane and calling for the facility's closure.
