\"dawn\" fait référence à l\'aube (descente de police à l\'aube) mais à moins que le contexte précise l\'heure de l\'opération, je ne dirais pas \"visite à l\'aube\".
L\'expression est passée dans le language commun

C\'est aussi synonyme de raid éclair si l\'on veut, mais je n\'emploierais pas ce terme qui, dans le jargon économique est réservé à des opérations boursières spécifiques (voir ci-dessus GM et Robintech). Ca prêterai à confusion, vu qu\'il s\'agit ici des autorités européennes agissant dans le cadre des loi anti-trust.

organiser des "descentes" au petit matin


Explanation:
As a terminologist, I like to collect and compare the linguistic nuances found between agencies, such as the EU, NATO and the UN, and anglophone and francophone countries.
