More than 252 Venezuelans expelled to El Salvador under Donald Trump's mass deportation policy suffered systematic and prolonged torture and abuse, including sexual assault, during their detention, according to a report published on Wednesday. The report, compiled jointly by Human Rights Watch (HRW) and Cristosal a group investigating violations in Central America says conditions at El Salvador's sprawling terrorist continent center (Cecot) breached the UN's standard minimal rules for the treatment of prisoners.

Nigerian Foreign Affairs Minister Yusuf Tuggar stated that Nigeria will not yield to US pressure to accept deported Venezuelans, emphasizing that the country has enough issues to manage. Tuggar asserted, "The issue of accepting Venezuelan deportees, honestly, I don't think is something that Nigeria is in a position to work with," reflecting the complexities faced by Nigeria amid external demands.
