Ecuador’s foreign ministry says an ICE agent tried to enter its Minneapolis consulate on January 27, 2026, but consular staff blocked the officer and activated emergency protocols to protect Ecuadorians inside. A social-media video shows a staffer rebuffing the agent as he warned he would “grab” the worker if touched. Quito filed a formal diplomatic protest with the U.S. embassy. The ministry demanded such attempts stop. The episode unfolded amid a large federal immigration surge in Minneapolis and recent fatal encounters involving federal agents. ICE and DHS had no immediate comment, and Ecuador urged protections for its consular premises firmly. (wdio.com)
