The Japanese internment camps during World War II primarily involved Japanese Americans, who were forcibly relocated and incarcerated by the U.S. government due to wartime fears of espionage and sabotage. Approximately 120,000 individuals, two-thirds of whom were U.S. citizens, were placed in these camps. The decision was enacted by President Franklin D. Roosevelt and implemented by government agencies such as the War Relocation Authority. Additionally, military officials and local authorities played roles in the enforcement and administration of the internment policies.
