Wilkes Barre Scranton Hazleton, PA, October 22, 2026 —
A new report puts deportations under the Trump administration at approximately 660,000 people over the past year, while saying the figure falls short of a White House target. The report also highlights an increase in arrests nationwide.
The information provided does not identify the report, explain how deportations were counted, or specify the dates covered by “the past year.” It also does not give the White House target or say how far the reported figure falls below it. No separate arrest total is provided.
The reported deportation figure and the description of increased arrests are the available details. Without further information about the report’s methods and time period, the figures cannot be compared with earlier periods or assessed against other published counts on the basis of this account alone.
The summary does not provide details about where the arrests occurred, which agencies carried them out, or what happened in individual cases. It also does not describe the policies or operational changes associated with the reported increase. Those details remain unspecified.
As presented, the report offers a broad nationwide account: deportations reached approximately 660,000 over the stated period, but remained below a White House goal, alongside ramped-up arrests. The target, underlying data and precise timeframe were not included in the information available.
