Since taking office on 20 January, President Donald Trump has announced a flurry of immigration-related executive orders, paving way for a widespread effort to crack down on undocumented migrants in the United States.
In more than 21 actions, Trump has moved to overhaul parts of the US immigration system, including how migrants are processed and deported from the US.
The White House has since publicised some of these efforts. On Friday, the new White House Press Secretary shared images of deportation flights being carried out by military cargo planes.
While Trump has promised "mass deportations" and arrests, it remains unclear how much of his plan is already being implemented.
Here is a breakdown of some of the significant actions taken by Trump on immigration in his first week, and how they compare to past policies.
Deportation of migrants
A cornerstone of Trump's immigration policy is removing unlawful migrants out of the US and the promise of "mass deportations".
To that effect, the defence department has said that it will provide military aircrafts to deport more than 5,000 people that have been detained by Border Patrol in San Diego and El Paso, Texas.
