ICE arrests have surged this summer, reaching a record high in July in almost every state for the second consecutive month.

That's according to newly released federal data.

And the data shows that an increasing number of those arrests involve people who do not have criminal records.

In fact, the majority of people ICE arrested in July had been accused of violating civil immigration laws, but they had not been charged with or convicted of a crime.

Ryan Foley has been reporting on the agency's evolving arrest tactics for the Associated Press.

Since Trump took office for his second term, ICE has grown by roughly 12,000 employees, and the agency has also been working with more state and local law enforcement in Republican-led states, like Florida and Texas, two places that have seen the largest increase in arrests this summer.

And in the coming months, ICE plans to give thousands of agents a controversial new piece of equipment, gloves that are designed to issue painful electric shocks when they come into contact with someone's skin.

ICE purchased the gloves with a sixteen point seven million dollar no bid contract.

ICE's agents will use the gloves to control detainees and protesters with the goal of avoiding more severe force, like firearms.

But these gloves come with serious risks.

They cannot be safely used for more than fifteen seconds.

Civil rights leaders and Democratic members of Congress have criticized this plan, saying the agency cannot be trusted to use the gloves appropriately, given its track record of civilian abuses.

Democrats in Congress have called on ICE to cancel the order, or at least create detailed rules for officers on how the gloves can be used and how any misconduct will be monitored and disciplined.

Foley says the gloves are designed to keep a record of how many times they're used and for how long.

And ICE said in a notice last week that it plans to use the gloves with quote.

Approved policy, training, and accountability standards.

But the agency did not elaborate on what those were.

Here are a few other stories we're following.

US forces struck Iranian rocket launchers Sunday, marking the first military action from the US in a month.

Leaders from US Central Command said they struck because they observed forces with a Revolutionary Guard Corps attempting to deploy mines in the Strait of Hormuz.
