The raid at the Hyundai Metaplant in Ellabell, Georgia, houses an electric vehicle battery plant jointly operated by South Korea-based companies Hyundai and LG Energy Solution, as reported by CNN.
Of the 475 people detained on Thursday (US local time), about 300 of them were South Korean, officials said as cited by CNN.
The raid is being seen as one of the most extensive immigration raids in recent American history.
CNN reported that the South Korean government has been actively working along with the Korean Embassy in Washington DC and the Consulate General in Atlanta for securing a release of the workers.
CNN further reported that the South Korean workers detained during the massive raid would be returned to the country on a chartered flight following negotiations, an official announced Sunday. (ANI)
