CNN — Jonathan Fahey is resigning as acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, according to a Department of Homeland Security official, only weeks after assuming the post.

Fahey's departure is the latest in a string of leadership changes at the Department of Homeland Security, and he is the most recent acting ICE director to step down. Last month, Fahey's predecessor -- Tony Pham -- departed. Pham had assumed the post last August.

It's unclear what prompted Fahey's departure.

This is a breaking story and will be updated.
