Abrego, a Maryland resident who had never been charged with any crime either in the US or in his native El Salvador, became a symbol of the Trump administration's ambitiously sadistic anti-immigration efforts when he was kidnapped by I agents in March and sent without due process to Cecot, a massive prison in El Salvador from which few detainees are ever released, as a result of what representatives for the Trump immigration authorities called an administrative error.

The U.S. has sent five men to Eswatini as part of the Trump administration's third-country deportation program, aiming to expand its reach for deportees.

The United States deported eight men who arrived in South Sudan this month - via Djibouti, where they were held for weeks in a metal shipping container at a naval base. All but one of the migrants had no connection to South Sudan.
