Three US states are to deploy hundreds of members of their national guard to Washington DC as part of the Trump administration's effort to overhaul policing in the capital through a federal crackdown.

West Virginia said it was deploying 300 to 400 guard troops, while South Carolina pledged 200 and Ohio said it would send 150 in the coming days. The moves, announced on Saturday, came as protesters pushed back on federal law enforcement and national guard troops fanning out in the heavily Democratic city following Donald Trump's executive order federalising local police forces and activating about 800 District of Columbia national guard members.
