FIRST ON FOX: Federal immigration agents arrested several convicted killers, a rapist and multiple drug traffickers in a single day Thursday, underscoring the Trump administration's push to target what Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials call the "worst of the worst" criminal illegal immigrants living in the U.S.

"Yesterday, [Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)] arrested multiple murderers, rapists, and drug traffickers from our communities," Homeland Security Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis told Fox News Digital.

"Nearly 70% of ICE arrests are of illegal aliens charged or convicted of a crime in the U.S.," she said. "Every day, our officers are putting their lives on the line to remove criminals from our communities."

According to DHS, Thursday's arrests include:
