Salvadoran nationals deported from the United States are arbitrarily detained in El Salvador and their loved ones do not know where they are or how to contact them. That's according to a Human Rights Watch report released Monday. The detainees are among more than 9,000 Salvadorans deported by the Trump administration since January 2025. The New York-based group interviewed 20 relatives and lawyers of 11 of the 9,000 Salvadorans who have been deported during President Donald Trump's second term. The report says they have been denied due process and that worried relatives have been unable to confirm where the deportees are detained.
