United States authorities have reportedly begun arresting some foreign nationals with expired visas at airports as part of efforts to strengthen immigration enforcement.

According to reports, the move is aimed at identifying individuals who have overstayed their authorised period of stay and ensuring compliance with US immigration laws.

Immigration officials have continued to remind travellers that visa approval does not guarantee indefinite stay, as visitors are required to leave the country or obtain valid extensions before their authorised period expires.

The reported arrests have raised concerns among some immigrant communities, with advocates urging authorities to ensure that enforcement actions follow due process and protect the rights of affected individuals.

Immigration experts advised foreign nationals travelling to or residing in the US to keep their documents updated, understand visa conditions, and seek legal guidance when facing immigration challenges.

The development comes amid broader efforts by the US government to tighten border and immigration controls while managing the movement of people into and out of the country.
